Calico696 Les you were the cop the rest of us tried to be! No fear, always a back-up and just plain sincere. And you were the only law enforcement officer that looked good in a station wagon! Rest brother and I’ll see you on the other side.

Panda Panda Koala I loved the big smile he had when he rode his Harley Hog down main street. He was on top of the world.
He loved that bike. He always was smiling or laughing.
RIP Lester.

He was a great police officer a great Veteran a great freemason
I always ribbed him, said- Les when you retired from the police force, and you turned in all of your equiptment issued to you by the department, You turned in your ticket book, it still had a few unissued tickets, after........how? many years ?!
He's now with St Michael the Archangel watching over and protecting us
