DR. LESLIE R. “LES”
COHEN, 73, of West
Bloomfield, died Nov.
23, 2024.
Les graduated as
valedictorian of Niles
North High School (class of ’69).
In the summer of ’68, he was a
research student at the Jackson
Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine,
solidifying his desire to join the
medical profession. After attending
the Johns Hopkins University, the
University of Chicago, as well as
the Pritzker School of Medicine, he
became a physician, specializing in
radiology. He began his practice in
1980 in Flint, where he also served
as an assistant clinical professor
at Michigan State University,
mentoring and sharing his expertise
in interventional angiography.
In 1988, Les was appointed
chairman of the Imaging
Department at Sturdy Memorial
Hospital in Attleboro, Mass., a
position he held with dedication
for 20 years. After an impressive
43 years in practice, Les retired in
December 2023, leaving behind a
legacy of excellence in his field.
Les and Fran raised their family
in Warwick, R.I. They were
privileged to own a boat that
allowed them to travel to Cape Cod
and the Islands, Long Island and
Connecticut.
Les was an avid golfer,
competitive tennis player and an
avid sports fan. He loved reading
both fiction and nonfiction. Les
took great pride in his family’s
closeness. He will always be a part
of their souls and hold a special
place in the hearts of all who were
honored to call him a friend.
He is survived by his beloved
wife of 52 years, Francine Cohen;
children, Daniel (Shana) Cohen
and Andrea (Jared) Charrette;
grandchildren, Eli, Zoey and
Eliana; siblings, Marla (the late
John) Ashford and Mitchell (Beth
Mcelroy) Cohen; nieces and
