So sorry to hear of Les’s passing. I worked with him a couple of different times during my Warren nursing years. I loved looking at the photos he put online and he certainly had a love for photography. Wishes of comfort and healing for his family and friends.
So sorry to hear of Les’s passing. I graduated from high school with him and had fond memories of our days in high school. Rest in peace Les. Thoughts and prayers for his family and friends.
I so admire his busting out of his anonymity for us–I used to send meeting money to the Warren area group from Pittsburgh, and I always wondered who was at the other end of the pipeline. It’s good to know it was someone I have come to think of as a friend. RIP
I am so sorry to hear of Les passing. He was a great contributor to the You Grew Up in Warren, and Warren Debate and Discussion groups. He will be missed. My sincere condolences and sympathies to his family and friends.
I’m very sad to hear of Les’s passing. He was a very sweet man and I enjoyed some of the opportunities we had to photograph together. I wondered why he had not returned emails and did not realise that he was dealing with an illness. I’m sorry we will not have more opportunities to share our passions for photography. My condolences to his family and friends. Terrie Johnson – Chautauqua County Camera Club

I grew up with Charlie and he was my best friend growing up. He never mentioned having a brother.
