Montie and Leon Wesley had been married for 12 years and had two children when Leon entered the ministry at age 35. Montie devoted full time to being a mother and minister’s wife and enjoyed the challenges of her new life.
Montie took great pride in keeping the parsonage ready for any type of meeting or visit from church members. She always left the parsonage in better condition than when they first moved in.
