Leslie C. “Uncle Les” Mayhue (1947-2025)

Leslie C. “Uncle Les” Mayhue, 78, of New Sewickley Township, died peacefully in the early morning hours on July 4th, 2025, at Good Samaritan Hospice House of Wexford.

He was born in Rochester on April 7th, 1947, in Rochester, a son of the late Clarence and Margaret (Avery) Mayhue. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sisters: Phyllis Blackburn, Louise (Bill) Wigley, Nancy (Junior) Dawson, Susan Denuzzio, Bonnagene (Leonard) Moore; as well as his brothers, Bob (Nancy) Mayhue, Don (Geraldine) Mayhue, Rodger (Barbara) Mayhue and Larry Mayhue. He is survived by his sister, Becky (Bob) Castelli, a special niece, Tina (Larry) Paxton, their children, Ethan, Garrett, and Finley and many loving nieces and nephews.

Leslie was known for his sense of humor and love for automobiles, and people cherished his presence at any event. He shared a close bond with his niece’s children, and they affectionately considered him as a grandfather. He was an instigator of “TGIF,” especially with Finley. He spent many years self-employed, having owned and operated Mayhue Electric Drain Service.

In accordance with Leslie’s wishes, there will be no visitation. However, a memorial service will be held on Friday, July 11th at 7 P.M. at the Rochester Free Methodist Church, 480 Jefferson Street, Rochester, with Pastor Chuck Thomas as the officiant.

The family would like to thank the staff of Good Samaritan Hospice in Wexford for their excellent care, as well as the nurses, Brooke and Bev, from Heritage Valley Beaver for their wonderful care and how much they went above and beyond for Leslie.

The GABAUER FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, INC., 1133 Penn Avenue, New Brighton was in charge of Leslie’s arrangements and is honored to be caring for the Mayhue family during this time.
