Leslie "Les" Denisar - Class of 1971

 Leslie Denisar
"Les" 69, of Newburgh, NY entered into rest, on July 10th, 2022. Les was
predeceased by his late parents, Don and Joanne Denisar. Les was the oldest
brother of five children, born in Merced, California and was raised in New
Windsor, NY, where he was an avid Boy Scout and athlete. Les leaves behind his
wife of 46 years, Faye (Rosenblum) Denisar, daughter Susan Claudio (Emilio) and
son Brian Denisar (Emily). He adored his five amazing grandchildren, Emma,
Avery, Braden, Madisyn and Cameron. Les is survived by his four siblings Teresa
Beyer, Carolyn Pazara, Mike Denisar Sr. and Chris Denisar Sr.
Les resided in Newburgh, NY for most of his life. He graduated in 1971 from
Newburgh Free Academy where he was a proud Varsity Football Player and Wrestler.
After high school, Les stayed active playing competitive slow pitch softball for
local teams such as O'Mara's, Coca-Cola, Miros and many others. He also enjoyed
bowling and was proud to share that he successfully bowled two perfect games.
More than anything Les loved baseball, especially the Baltimore Orioles, he was
a life-long, die-hard fan.
Les' life exemplified service to his community as a Life Member, Past President,
Past Commissioner, and 1st Assistant Chief at the Middle Hope Fire Department.
After his retirement from Montfort Brothers Les spent time learning to play
golf. He loved traveling with friends and visiting new courses across the
country while participating in the Golf Channel Amateur tournaments. Some of
Les' fondest golf memories occurred in Walden while working at Osiris Country
Club, where he met some of his closest friends.
Les was a family man. He was a loyal and loving husband to his wife Faye. He was
the number one fan to both of his kids, who he was extremely proud of. Two of
his fondest memories with them occurred recently while attending the 2008 New
York Giants Superbowl win with Brian and sitting front row at Toby Keith,
singing "Red Solo Cup" with Susan.
The family is holding a private burial service and will host a Memorial Service
on Saturday July 16th at Osiris Country Club from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. In lieu of
flowers, donations can be made to an Inaugural and Annual Golf Scholarship Fund
for a student athlete. This will be the Les Denisar Osiris Country Club
Scholarship Fund.
