Leslie Wallace Bell
It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Leslie Wallace Bell, on January 10th, 2023. After a lengthy battle with his health he took his last breath at William Osler Hospital in Etobicoke. He was born in 1942 in Kingston, Ontario, to James and Lois Bell, the 5th of 7 siblings he was predeceased by his sisters Patsy and Betty and his brother Ralph and will be missed by his sister Elda and brothers Daryl and Rick. Distanced from his family in Kingston he lived most of his life in the Toronto/Etobicoke area with his loving wife of almost 54 years Diane. After suffering a stroke in 1996 his world became quite limited and small but precious none the less. He was a beloved father to Lorri Thomson (Cory) and Niki Smith (Chris) and Grandpa to Sawyer, Kylie, Quintin and Cooper. He will be deeply missed by all. As per his wishes there will be no service. Gone but not forgotten Les has gone “Honky Tonkin’”

Diane, Lorri and Niki,
Sending you my deepest condolences. Les was a great man and always a father figure to me growing up.
Elda Waldrif
Diane’ Lorri and Niki I am so sorry for your loss and my loss too. I will always think of him as young Les as my Les was old Les.
growing up we always referred to Pat and Les as the two little ones as they were the youngest of the five until Daryl and Ricky came along.
Just know I am with you at this very sad time and Les will always be with us in our hearts
Loads of Love to all of you
Elda

As sad as it is his passing I’m sure he’s in a better place considering his last few years were quite difficult. Les was a large part of my life while I was going to school in Toronto and helped me through some difficult times.Take care Diane, Lorrie, Nicky and Family. Thinking about you all.
Love
Rick and Corrine
