For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.- I Thessalonians 4:16



Leslie peacefully joined his Creator on August 28, 2020 in Springfield, OR, USA.

He was born in Anda, Pangasinan and lived most of his life in Quezon City. He retired from the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company after 26 years of dedicated service. He immigrated to the USA in 2017 and resided in Eugene, Oregon in these last three years.

Leslie is survived by his wife of 52 years, Virginia Ellorimo Gallarde, and children Cherrie, Grace, Lester, Olivia May, Liezel and Yvette; daughter-in-law Reggie; sons in-law Cedric, Ronald, Paul, Randy, and Craig; Darren; and grandchildren Jet, Nikki, Kate, Makayla, Lance, MJ, Marge, Faith, Jhian, Reign, Yaa, and Roman.

His cremated remains will be brought home to the ancestral resting place in the Philippines. We thank you for your prayers and sympathies.
