I was first introduced to Lesley the 21st of November 2010 when he wrote me an e-mail saying how fascinated to learn from Cora that his first wife Joan had a half brother. Over the course of 3 days we exchanged 5 e-mails exchanging information about our lives. Thank you Les for accepting me into your life, albeit for the shortness of time, I felt I have known you for many years. I trust one day we will meet in a quiet tranquil place and share a moment together. My prayers go out to Lynda and your beautiful family whom I am sure love and miss you very much. Au revoir Sir Leslie B Jones GCR. KCSM.

JONES, Leslie. Loved Patriach, Father, Father-in-law and Grandfather. With guardian angel beside you, peacefully to sleep 10th January 2012. There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go. As long as I can I will look at this world for both of us, as long as I can, I will laugh with the birds, I will sing with the flowers, I will pray to the stars, for both of us. Much Love Serena, Gavin, Katie and Jordan.

JONES, Leslie Bertie. Courageously on the 10 January 2012. Words cannot express our deepest gratitude to Lynda and South Auckland Hospice for all they did for Dad. "With tears I said goodbye as I watched you fade away, my heart was slowly breaking as you fought so hard to stay, you did not want to leave us, but you did not go alone, for part of me went with you, the moment you left me on my own." Dearly loved Father of Mandy and Syd. Granddad to Megan and Mana, Shannon and Keith, Aaron and Kelly and his 6 Great-Grandchildren. Dad though heaven may divide us and we are far apart, you are always here beside us and forever in our hearts.
