Les (Leslie) Eric Nickerson of Medicine Hat, AB passed away on December 13th, 2024, at the age of 72 years.
He leaves to cherish his memory his children, Lindsay Comeau (Brian Lensen), Lealand, Tammy Rosenau (Mark), Nicole Ranger (Neil); grandkids, Shyanne Magnus (Taylor), Brayden Ranger, Rhianna Robson, Ethan Comeau, Robert Ranger, Adam Ranger, Dexton Comeau; great granddaughter, Hensley Magnus; siblings, Richard (Joyce), Sterling (Cheryl), Keith (Donna), Laura Cranton (Wayne), Bentley (Stephanie); as well as numerous nieces and nephews; extended family, Carol Kopec, Materi (Bill Kaleta), Gary Schaan (Angie), Tim Hammel and Patty Simpson; last but not least, fur baby, Gizmo.
Les was predeceased by his wife, Betty; mother, Harriet; father, Charles; as well as brother, Russell (Sheila).
Les was born in Liverpool, Nova Scotia and at a young age, headed out west where he made Alberta his forever home. He was quick to find work ranching which he enjoyed very much until he took a job with the City of Medicine Hat where he stayed until his retirement in 2017. In his spare time, he enjoyed camping, fishing and being outdoors.
If you ask any of his friends or family, he will be most remembered by his witty unique and embarrassing sense of humor.
In keeping with his wishes, there will be no formal service and he will be cremated and reunited with the love of his life, Betty.
