You know someone and you figure they'll always be there even though you know they won't. Nevertheless, it is always hard to see familiar names leaving the building. Len was always the smartest kid in the class and made it look easy. He played a mean saxophone in the band too under Bernie Ryalls. I, on the other hand struggled to make anything musical with the clarinet. So, friend, Godspeed, and may you always have fair winds and following seas.
I was very sad to read Len's obituary in the Vancouver Sun. And send my condolences to his family. He was such a nice man and sent me a lovely message when I lost my hubby Joe in 2021. Len's grandparents were friends with Joe's grandparents who lived in Taghum and they helped Joe's family by translating, etc. for them when they came to Canada in 1956 to escape the Hungarian revolution/opression. I will remember Len and his Nelson family fondly - may he rest in peace.
It is hard to believe that so many of our classmate's are slowly passing on. I don't know about you but I still remember Len as he was in class not subject to the fragility that aging afflicts on each one of us. I remeber Len with fondness and wish him to be at peace. May his family be comforted that Len will remain in their heart and memories forever.
