Leslie Wayne Mossauer, aged 73 years of Moose Jaw, SK passed away on Friday, April 2nd, 2021. Les started working with his father at the age of 12 years sharpening discs.  He eventually opened Mossauer’s Disc Sharpening in 1972 and it operated until 2011, obtaining a total of 51 years in the disc sharpening business.  Les “Donald Duck” also worked for the City of Moose Jaw as a Transit Bus Driver for 28 years.  He loved being with people and making them smile.  Les also enjoyed welding, video-taping, was an avid stamp collector and belonged to the Moose Jaw Stamp Club.  

He was predeceased by his father, John; mother, Evelyn; and son, Chris.  Les will be sadly missed by his wife of 49 years, Sharon Mossauer; daughter, Angela (Tom); daughter-in-law, Heather; granddaughters, Madison and Eliana; and grandsons: Joseph, Riley and August.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I rode the bus and and enjoyed his sense of humour. Then ended up in the same neighbourhood. He was a really good neighbour. May peace be with you all.

    I first met Les when I was a teenager and he was sharpening discs in the 70’s. He won everyone’s heart with his sense of humour every place he went. Strangely enough, I would meet him again 30 years later when I started working for Moose Jaw Transit.
    People still shared their memories of him years after he retired. They didn’t all remember his name but they remembered the duck!
    On behalf of myself and all of Transit , past and present — we are sorry for your loss.
