COLE, Lester (Les)

Lester, known as Les, was one of a very small number of people who were juniors when they joined MGGC as foundation members.

Les’ photograph was taken during a celebration of his mother Gwen’s 96th birthday in 2026.

(Information taken from a personal conversation with Max Hannah who retained a long friendship with the Cole family. Max also arranged to obtain the photographs of Les and his mother Gwen.)
