LES BELYEA 1958 - 1986 STATION AGENT VEL BZN Received word today that Les Belyea has passed away. Indications are that he had the flu along with some heart problems. He was found in his easy chair watching TV . It appears that he may have died as early at the 19th but was found by a friend this am. Sorry to have to pass on this information. -Al Sprenger BZN (10-22-01) The following is from a message I received from Al Sprenger in regards to Les Belyeas' funeral. I plan to drive over to Belgrade for the service, and will make sure to get an extra copy of the obit. -Darrell Robson --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date is October 27th Saturday 2:00PM Viewing and Visitation 3:00PM Service Burial at Sunset Burial Grounds on Higway 10 between Bozeman and Belgrade Reception after Burial This will all take place at the Belgrade Community Church which is Near the elevators -Al Sprenger --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (10-24-01) I attended the funeral for Les Belyea on Saturday, and there were several former FL employees there. (BZN employees). -Darrell Robson (10-28-01) Attached is a photo of Les. This was scanned from the handout of his funeral. It was on a creme colored paper, so the quality is not the best, but should be usable. Also, I've had a request from another FL employee to show Les' status in his club profile as deceased. Don't know if this is something you can do or not. Last nite, I posted some info about attending the funeral, and I noticed at the bottom of the page, that N7AIK had checked in. That's weird, as that was Les' club ID. Maybe his son or daughter was able to sign on to check out the site, but I thought it was strange since he had been dead for about a week. -Darrell Robson (10-28-01) I was looking through the photos of the SLC reunion and saw Gale Fogg whom I have known for years and still keep in touch with. And in the obits: Les Belyea from BZN, we had a lot of good times together, along with Woody Fogg & Paul Novotny from BZN. -Mike Whitney (6/1/09) Name: Leslie C.
