Les was a devoted husband to me for almost forty three years. He was my sweetheart, soulmate and best friend. Les was a loving father and grandfather, and was well liked by a very wide circle of friends. He had an irrepressible sense of fun, a ready smile, and was always willing to help anyone. Les was very much a family man and very much enjoyed family get togethers and playing with our grandchildren. He also loved taking holidays and we lived our dream last January when we visited Hong Kong, New Zealand and the Cook Islands, this trip taking a month. It was after we returned home that my lovely Les was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. Sadly, Les lost his very short battle with Interstitial Lung disease and the pulmonary fibrosis it caused on November 18th 2009 at the age of just 63. Our lives will never be the same. Hopefully this Breath of Life fund will raise precious resources for research into lung diseases.
