of St. Louis and formerly of Mount Olive, IL, Asleep in Jesus, Monday, April 6, 2020. Beloved husband of 68 years to Doris C.

Les was a faithful and longtime member of Hope Lutheran Church, St. Louis. He served in WWII in the US Coast Guard, loved all sports, worked for a few years as a minor league baseball umpire and retired as a production scheduler from Rawlings Sporting Goods.
Services: No visitation. A memorial service will be held at Hope Lutheran Church (5218 Neosho St., St. Louis, MO 63109) at a later date. Memorials to Hope Lutheran Church appreciated. KUTIS AFFTON SERVICE.
Les was my connection to the Pahde family for the last several years. I was a little worried when I hadn’t heard from him for a while. Sometimes he would call and say “everything is ok” I just wanted to check in with you. The last time I saw him was when they came to see my Mother (Dorothy Pahde Struve). We had a great visit! I will truly miss him.
