Tributes

Leave a tribute
  1. Condolences to all of Les' family. Sorry I didn't see the notice until it was too late as I would have been there to bid him a well deserved farewell. A good friend over many years who would always stop and talk to me in the office as he was walking through. Always helped any way he could inside and outside of our work environment at Ford.

  5. Les,
    Old Mate,

    We may have only met 2 years ago but you really made an impression in my life,
    The biggest thing we had in common was our love for FORDS
    How your eyes lit up when we talked about the cars you have done up
    Smiles from ear to ear
    Eyes all sparkly
    And normally a little turn of your head and a yep to end the conversation
    It ment so much to me when you told me, it was a credit to me as to how well I had kept my 2003 xr8 !
    Those words still ring in my ears
    Im sure in the last few months you cursed me a couple of times when I had to call the ambulance or gave you a talking to about doing the right thing so we would have you longer, it was all worth the cursing, but we would always have a laugh whether it was with me or at me you still laughed.

    All I know Les is that I will miss our chats. And will miss you more than anyone will know

    Thank you for all the car advice and for just being my old mate
    Love ya Les xxx rip old mate ???? Dee
