I know Les & Jen through my niece, Trish Healy (Mohawk Hillstriders). I had the privilege to cross paths with Les & Jen on Aug. 30th at Villa Verona and watch them dance. No words can provide comfort to Jen and family but the showing of Love speaks volumes. May God carry you through your broken heart and soul. Much Love and prayers, Lily (aka Aunt Lily)

I am so sorry for the Dunlap's family and their loss. I knew Les in school and his energy, kindness, and fun-loving spirit has always been a part of him. I expect he has touched untold numbers of people as he helped so many. May you all find comfort.

I worked with Les at St. Elizabeth Hospital many years ago. It breaks my heart to hear of his passing. He was a respected RT, a great co-worker, a family man and a funny guy. He was also a football coach for my oldest grandson who is now 32 and he still remembers him. Les always left a good impression and a memorable smile with everyone he met in life. After all this time, I recently saw him again. He came to the hospital to instruct my husband on his IV medications prior to discharge. I feel blessed to have had this opportunity to visit with him, get updates on his family, see that smile, hear that laugh and get that hug. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. Shine on Les, you are a bright star in Heaven.

I worked with Les when he was a new RT at Faxton, always put his patients needs first, a sense of humor second to none! I have run into him throughout the years and always a pleasure to see him. My heart aches for his family and those who loved this wonderful man, a hero to the end sharing the precious gift of life his legend will live on.

My heart breaks for the Dunlap family. Les was such a great guy. Les stuck with me during one of the early sessions from the Trek New Hartford bike rides in 2021. I was just starting out as a cyclist. He taught me many new things that I still use today. He would've been so proud of me how far I've come along as a cyclist. I rode 114 miles in honor of him on Tuesday, September 10, 2024. Godspeed, Les! Until we meet again.....

We hope that Les's family finds comfort in the joy that Les brought others. Many years ago we used to play broom hockey with him (the Faxton group). He was a joy to be around. He will be missed. Bill and Jo Parker

I am truly shocked and it is heart breaking news to see. I worked with Les at St E's in the 90's. I always trusted him (the best RT person ever) to help with my peds kids. I then worked with his wife , Jennifer - definitely the female version of Les - just a wonderful lerson, in the nursery at St Luke's for a little bit in the 2015 time period. I am so sorry , Les was a great person. Jennifer, my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

There are not really words to adequately express how difficult a sudden loss, like that of Les, can be for his family and friends. He clearly touched a great many hearts in profound ways. As you explore whatever comes next I know you will continue to have positive effect on those you encounter. Rest Peacefully dear friend.
