"My strong sense of community is based firmly in family values. I am a native resident of Shasta County. Together, my wife Susie and I, married 35 years, have three children and seven grandchildren. When I'm asked why I serve our community, I share that it is to encourage, to strengthen families and to grow relationships. I serve because I value the people that live, work and play in Shasta County, this place we proudly call home." - Les
