May cherished memories sustain each of you at this time. One of my favorites was when your Mom coached/directed me through Portland, gently explaining when to go to a different lane to be able to turn at the appropriate intersection. Norval sat quietly in the back seat, and everyone breathed a sign of relief when we got to the edge of the City and were on our way to Deer Island!
Be assured of my love, thoughts and prayers!

Les was a wonderful lady. I was able to get to know her once she retired and was able to come to church more often. It was great to have her as a part of our Priscilla Circle Womens group at Plymouth Presbyterian Church. We shared the hosting duties several times. My prayers and sympathy to the family. Blessings, Carol Jones
Tara, Ty,Curt and families. Sending sincere condolences On the loss of your Sweet Mom. She truly was a very delightful Lady. God Bless you all through this difficult time. Ed and Lu Parshall and family.
She was a special friend. She was the most honest, smartest person.
I remember graveyard nights when I used to take care of her, she would always be awake up when i check on her and we will talk for hours and she would always let me hold her hand when we prayed.
She definitely loved the Lord and she taught me sooo much about accepting God’s will for your life.
Mostly missing her sass, her ability to complement, her interests in other people’s lives and how easy it was to get to know her and what makes her day.
❤️
I will always remember the twinkle in her eye, her laugh, her patience, warm-heart and smile. Aunties smile was contagious.
I read the tributes and can’t help but smile thinking about the legacy she is leaving behind. She taught and shared so much with her children and her children’s children. All the generations that have been and will be blessed by the life she lived.
A Celebration Of Life.
Thinking of you all during this difficult time, all our love.
Darrell & Sherri Jo Kobelka and family
Les was one of the most lovely ladies. She was my mentor and friend. I worked night shift with her In my early years of nursing and her knowledge and compassion for all her patients was evident each night. It has been many years since I have visited with her but I can still hear her laugh and see her eyes light up with her smile! She is one of those unforgettable gifts.. knowing her made me a better nurse and a better person. She would always encourage me to go to the beach no matter the time of year and dip my toes in the water.. she said there was nothing like it. I’m so thankful that I knew her. My deepest sympathies to her family!
I was saddened to learn of Les's passing when Barb Kolberg called me. When we worked at Tuality Hospital, I always followed her as she worked nights on the 11-7 shift as I was on days, 7-3. Every morning when I'd arrive she always greeted me with a smile and a very short assessment of her night, prior to my going into our daily report. She always had everything ready for me so I could just slide into place and relieve her. Both her patients and her colleagues spoke well of her. I'm sure her family will miss her and I offer my condolences to them. Carol Ringering
