While I never met Leslie I will treasure our brief correspondence in the summer of 2009. My grandmother was also a Vandersluys and together Leslie and I (mostly Leslie) were able to unlock the family history going back generations. I am planning to visit Holland this summer and many of the places we discovered through research. I am deeply saddened that I will not be able to share my journey with Leslie. I will make the trip in his memory. Kathy Cortez (kattez@gmail.com)

What a beautiful and kind man. He always had something kind to say for everybody. Our thoughts go out to Chris and all the family and friends of Les (& his beautiful doggies). Much love and respect, from the team at Hogan Gallery: Bryan, Zack and Evie xoxo
