Les was born on August 15, 1959 in Odessa, TX. to Gene and Dorothy Gene ("D.G") Templeton.

Les was an accomplished athlete and attended Patrick Henry High School in San Diego, CA. He attended college at Texas A&M where he began his journey in architectural design and construction. Les married Linda Heeg in 1986 and they had two kids, Amber and Bryce, together. They moved to Los Alamos in 1993 where Les began sharing his remarkable architectural and construction talents. Since then Les built numerous beautiful and uniquely designed homes while providing jobs to many employees and contractors in Los Alamos and the surrounding area. Les had a true gift for designing homes to beautifully and naturally fit the land upon which they were built while ensuring it could be constructed as affordably as possible. Les did his very best to share his talents and gifts for the benefit of others.
Les was an avid outdoorsman and many of his favorite memories and stories involve the numerous camping, fishing, and hunting trips he went on with his family and friends. Les' warmth, helpfulness, friendliness and his bigger than life personality will be greatly missed.
