I was very blessed to know Mr. Cruickshank during my years at NBTel. He was my Manager, for many years. He was the most kind, loving support to his staff I ever knew. He was like a Father away from home, since I lived many miles away from St. John. May he rest peacefully in the arms of our Lord.

So sorry to hear about Les’ passing. Les was one of my managers at NBTel back in the late ‘80’s. He was always a calm and confident leader, with kind words and morale boosts for everyone. I would run into Les in the community over the years, and he always remembered me and asked about my children. A true gem of a gentleman. Please accept my condolences on your loss.
