She was born on July 12, 1959, in Warsaw, to Barbara Jean LaRue and Lowell Gene Regenos. She was a lifetime resident of Kosciusko County, where she worked for many years as a machinist for Biomet in Warsaw. One of Lesa’s greatest accomplishments was furthering her education later in life and was proud to have earned her bachelor’s degree.
Lesa always enjoyed a great day fishing, she just loved to cast out her line and enjoy the moment relaxing and became many of her happiest times. She wasn’t shy about sharing her vocal talents and was comfortable with a microphone in her hand. Singing brought her much joy with her unique and energetic voice. Lesa was loved by many, she had a strong, beautiful soul, a kind heart and a great sense of humor. She spent her time on this earth just doing the best she could for her family that she dearly loved. She was born to be a grandma and she simply adored all of her grandbabies. She will be forever loved and missed by her friends and family.
She leaves behind two daughters, Nickie (Todd Jr.) Landry, Warsaw; Amanda (Nathan) Ghrist, Claypool; 11 grandchildren; and three sisters: Le Anna Regenos, Muscatine, Iowa; Nila (Barry) Coy, Warsaw; Lisa Martin, Berne. She was preceded in death by her parents; siblings: Mark Regenos, Tracy D. Holmes and Donald Stuart Gerding.
