    I am deeply sorry for our loss of Les. I say ‘our loss’ because he was part of our working family for 10 years. He was dedicated to his work and from the photos, his family, friends and neighbors! Remember him, share stories about him and don’t be hesitant to speak of him. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.

    Shelley and family,
    I was fortunate to work with Les at Spectrum for many years. He always had a smile on his face and was so giving of his time and knowledge particularly when I needed assistance with something technical. My clients were always happy to see Les if he was sent out to their place of business on a service call. Later he worked with my late brother-in-law, Don Campbell at London Police Service. Don often spoke about Les and his kindness to all he worked with. We have lost a very exemplary man.
