LOVE, Leslie “Les” James
—
It is with sadness we announce the passing of Leslie James Love on June 14, 2021, at the age of 78. Les is now reunited with his beloved wife Wendy who he married 55 years ago and who he missed dearly since she predeceased him in 2017. Born and raised in Ontario, Les and Wendy moved to Lake Country in 1978 with children, Jeff and Jennifer.
Les was known for his independence, wit, and the twinkle in his blue eyes. Les had a passion for riding, both horses and motorcycles, on which an accident early in his life took his arm but not his cowboy spirit. Les was known as a man of few words, but also a talented whistler, yodeler, and auctioneer like his father. He loved his family, his wild cat Squeak, vintage cars, western novels, reminiscing with old Thistletown friends, and shooting the breeze over coffee and sweets.
He is missed by his children, granddaughter Darrah, siblings Cliff (Joan) Love and Jean Adamson, and many other family and friends.

Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of LOVE Leslie “Les James —..
