[by Harry Litt - Les's cousin]
I was once again saddened and upset by the loss of a family member, our cousin Leslie!
I haven’t seen him or spoken to him in many years but he was a very important part of my early childhood! As far back as I can remember I was hanging out with Les!
We corresponded by mail as little kids before the family moved to Monticello. We ran around the Oakley Manor, Oakley Inn and Town and Country. [Les's uncle] took Les and I to the town dump to target shoot with a 22 rifle. I was invited to his house and yours many times for dinner with my favorite cousins!
I reached out to Helen and sent her my condolences and memories. It has been a very long time since I had spoken to her. She really appreciated my letter and sent me a beautiful photo of her and Leslie! It must be very difficult and sad for her as well as Merle, Danny, and Faith since they just lost their mom a few months ago! Please extend my sympathies to them!
I read Leslie‘s obituary and he left behind a large family and had a very interesting life! You have my sympathies also as it is loss for you and Kenny too! Val and Irwin also send their condolences!
Please stay healthy and safe in these crazy times! Love, Cousin Harry
