I didn't know Les very well. I had the pleasure of working around him a little during past outages. My dad, Bert, worked with him more than I ever did, but luckilly sometimes Les and my dad did work together when I was already working alongside my dad. That's how I got to know that Les was a very kind, dedicated, and caring man. He always had something funny to say or a raffle ticket to try and sell you so you could win a new bike. I learned and thought of him as a very endearing and intelligent man and a heck of a salesman (Although I never won my bike). I don't think I'll soon forget him or the fact that I was lucky enough to get to know him, even for just the little while. I surely never will forget the phrase that reminds me of his big heart, that Les is Always More.

To Les' family,
I was so very deeply saddened when I heard about Les. My husband and I both knew Les from work (Wolf Creek). Les was always polite, respectful and kind every time I seen him. Doing business with Les was always a pleasure. I always just knew that Les treated his family like gold. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Leslie & I are 1st cousins, when the family came from Arizona to Okla. on vacation every year Leslie would drive his Mom & Dad crazy to be dropped off at our house so he could be with my brother Jerry. He would beg to stay at our house the whole vacation and usually did. I loved him very much, he was a great guy!!
My husband Donald loved him too and was very close to him!
Sue, Lisa, Willie, and GRAND babies, our thoughts and prayers are with you!!

Lisa and Willie I am so sorry for your loss. It was quite a shock and so sad to hear your father is gone. Since he has been back at WC I have seen and visited him from time to time. Every time it brought happy memories of you in Burlington. I lost touch with your family but have thought of you often.

It is so very hard to believe that you are gone Leslie. I am so very glad that I was able to spend those few moments with you at this last reunion. You were the best. You always made people feel good no matter what was going on with them. You had a heart of gold. You will be greatly missed by all who knew you. Sue, my heart goes out to you and your family. This kind of loss is very hard and no words can feel that empty space. Just know that our family is always here for you all. We will be praying for all of you. Love you.

Lisa,
Although we haven't known one another all that long, I feel like we were put in each others path by a higher power to help each other when help was needed. Even though I didn't get the privilege to know your dad I know he must have been a great guy to have a family like yours. ct

Mary Kennedy posted a condolence
Well, this is something that you never feel that you have to do. At my age you would think it would be him writing this for me. It should never be that the young ones go before the older ones. No words can express the love that I have for Les. His sister, brothers, Teresa and Jerry were my favorite cousins. I went to live with Les and his brothers and sister when my mother passed away and the time that I spent in their home was so very special to me. Les was telling me at the reunion that when Jan, Wonema, Les and I were sitting at the table, the table would dance because we would laugh so hard. Our laughter was like a medicine to me and helped to mend my heart after the loss of my mother. It is unbelievable to me that he is gone. But I know that I will get to see him soon because the rapture is coming soon and we will be together again. Sue, may God bless you and your family. We are praying for you that God will strengthen you at this time of loss. I love you. Love Mary Kathryn (Doe Doe)

Sue, Lisa & family,
Words can not express our sympathy to you. We have worked with Les on several outages and with each outage our respect, love and friend ship grew. Les would speak of his family and their activities often at work. We can honestly say Les was a man who loved God, Sue, his children and a twinkle would appear when speaking of his grandchildren. Les was the type of person that is few and far between. Please know Les is in heaven looking down over his family and friends and we will see him again. You are in our prayers.

Lisa, Willie and Families,
I was shocked to hear of your loss. Your dad was one of the sweetest men I have ever known. He loved watching all of your kids play sports and attending anything they were involved in. I know they were one of his greatest joys. We had many great chats at the gas station when we would return home at the same time from work. He will be greatly missed.
