My deepest condolences, With fond memories on the passing of a good friend Donald Elmer Leslie. It was an honor to have known such a great person. I look back on all the good memories. I remember the first time I met your father. He made me feel so welcome and comfortable right away, but of course I was drunk half of the time ha-ha. My heart goes out to Dave and his family.

Don,
For as long as we've known you, you always wore a smile, a positive attitude and were such a good natured man. So sad to learn of your passing but happy that you will be with your loved ones on the other side. Your good hearted nature already does and will live on in your children and grandchildren. Our deepest condolences to Brenda, Dave, Rob, Ken and Brian. You will be sadly missed. May you rest in peace.
Tony and Ovi

When David and I started dating we took a drive to the Port Perry Fair.
That was the first time I met my future father in law. He welcomed me with a big smile and hug. He had the same happy and respectful personality for all my family and friends. My family are deeply saddened and send there condolences at his loss. I know in my heart that he is in a much better place along with mom (Marion).
Love you always, Daughter in Law Joyce

Sadly Dad, past away peacefully Sunday morning June 28th 2020 at the age of 91. He is now together again with Mom.
I will always remember him as the hard working man who worked at GM in Oshawa and also our farm, but still always had time for family and friends!
Love you always Dad
