Looking at Len’s picture brought back many wonderful memories of being with him over the years.
I offer my sympathy and love to Elsa and all of his extended family.
Rachel, thank you for so lovingly caring for Len. My sympathy is extended to you and your family as well.
Len was our next-door neighbor for many years. He was a good friend and a true gentleman. We will miss him. Our deepest sympathies to his family and to Rachel, Len’s close friend and care-giver.
I had the good fortune of working with Len (and coincidentally also with his wife Wendy) back in the 1980s. He was always an affable guy and a pleasure to work with. My deepest cndolences to his family and friends.
