She serves on the Lone Oak ISD Education Foundation Board of Directors, is a Rotarian, and has been an Altrusan for over 13 years with the Altrusa International of Greenville, TX club. She is a graduate of the 2015 Hunt County Leadership class. Rose attended Berkner High School in Richardson and The University of Texas at Austin. She is married to Terry Hayden, whom is an Allstate Insurance agent in Royse City. They have two kids, Chasity 23 and Andrew 13, and two very slobbery boxers.

Leslie Wilson, Urgent Care

Leslie has been the Marketing Director for Rockwall Urgent Care since they opened in April 2010. A Rockwall resident since 1993, Leslie had been involved in a variety of organizations, including Rockwall HeartChase, Team Promise Makers and Rockwall Christian Writers. Personally, she's been active with PTA, RHHS boosters, MOPS, and Moms in Prayer. She and her family are long-time members of Lake Pointe Church, where Leslie has taught children's and youth classes. Leslie loves to speak and tell stories to audiences large and small. She's also a published author, former newspaper columnist, ghostwriter, and freelance editor. Leslie and Bret, married since August of 1988, have three children: Charlie (24), a UT Houston medical student who's married to Lindsy, a teacher, Molly (21), a psychology major at Dallas Baptist, and Reese (20), who is studying economics at Vanderbilt. Leslie enjoys hanging out with her family, snow skiing, playing board games, watching Sherlock or just talking. Bret and Leslie enjoy finding rustic and industrial elements at Canton (or on the side of the road) and re-purposing them into amazing new furniture pieces.
