I'm sorry for your loss I only had the pleasure of knowing Les for the short time he was at NS but it was a pleasure to meet such a great person. He spoke daily about his wonderful family and how he enjoyed spending time with them. He was very proud of his son and daughter and loved working on the projects he and Blake were into. Please know that he is in a great place I hope my mother gets to meet him and someday I get to meet him again.

By knowing he is loved and pain free seated with his heavenly father provide some peace. Leslie was such a kind, gentle and sweet man. Hold tight to your loving memories. Heaven just got sweeter with this wonderful soul. Our Love and Prayers are with you.
