RIP Les. You were such a big part of the Ottawa Golf community and you will be missed.
Really sorry to hear this. Cancer sucks.
I had Les do lots of work for me over the years and I remember picking up a club I'd had him build me one time at his firehall. I had my 3yo son with me and Les gave him the grand tour, had him sitting in the driver seat of his ladder truck and had him wearing his helmet. So kind. I will miss him.
So sorry to hear this. May he RIP and condolences to his family. Cancer does suck big time !!!!!
Deepest condolences to His family , Les was a huge part of OG and I worked with him a few times over the years .The man absolutely loved golf and Everything about it especially with his club fitting and Maxxfit golf .

That's great André
I remember Les and I were at Greensmere and Les was lining up a tough long putt and took his time looking from every angle and then proceeded to stroke the ball and it sailed by the hole 15' and he just looked at me with a wry smile and said "how come that didn't go in". We had a good laugh at that one.
A few of you have reached out to see if there was somewhere they could donate and Catherine posted this
