Whether it was the backyard plum fights in the early days or right through to putting new shoes on the truck, Les had a determination and resilience that allowed him to deal with adversity better than most. Talk about ‘knocking off work to carry bricks’. It was a breeze doing it throughout most of his life. No one would have expected the heaviest bricks toward the end. A distinguished life full of incredible service and achievements. Rest peacefully Les. Love to Leonie, Adele and the extended family.
From the FitzGeralds at the other end of Manifold Street.

Les was a " straight-shooter"; always strong and honourable in his family, personal, and business relationships . Albeit,he arose from humble beginnings,; nonetheless his parents , Len and Desma , loved and supported him in all his undertakings . Sincere thanks to Leonie , Jemma and Tom ,for the comfort given in the last months of his life . Les, yes, gone far too early ...... .
