We are deeply saddened by the loss of Les. He was a very special man, one of the sweetest, hard working and loving men we have ever known. Family functions will not be the same without him.
Were are sure that Colin was waiting on heaven's door step to greet him with open arms as he loved him very much too.
We were blessed to have had him in our lives.
We love you all! "Hugs"

Kelsey and Family,
I'm so very sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad. It's hard to put into words what I want to say to you...my heart breaks for you. I know your Dad is in a better place, free from pain, but you'll still miss him like crazy. I hope one day all the fond memories you've all shared will replace the sadness. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My Dear Daddy how I miss you so much. You meant the world to Shayne, Mack and I as you were a big part of our lives and you taught us that family is so important. You were such a loving, caring, thoughtful and generous man with the biggest heart and smile. I am so proud to have you as my "Popsicola". We will cherish the wonderful memories we made together and carry on your legacy. We love you Dad so much and you'll never be forgotten.
Love: Shanny, Shayne and Macky <3

My precious daddy...no words can describe how much we are missing you and wish you were with us once again, healthy and happy. You will be lovingly remembered for your wide smile, twinkling eyes, and mischievous sense of humour. You were liked and loved by many and your passing will leave a void that no one can fill. Our many memories of you warm our hearts and will keep us going during this incredibly sad time. You were adored by your children and grandchildren and we hope you felt our love and presence as you were lifted up to your Heavenly home. May you be resting in peace, my dear dad...
All our love always
