I knew Les all my life. 'Thought about him a lot lately. My Dad and Les Sr. were best friends. I spent many a day in my childhood at the farm visiting his Mom and Dad. He was a gentleman like his Dad. 'Wish I had gotten to see him one more time to talk about the "good old days." May he rest in peace.
