Leonard Crellin Obituary

It is with great sadness we share that Leonard Harrison Crellin passed away suddenly on January 21, 2015. Len is survived by his daughter Wendy Becraft, son Mark Crellin (Susan) and grandchildren Tanner Becraft (Kelli), Spencer Becraft (Kassie) and Allesson Crellin. He is also survived by two great-grandchildren, Brooklyn Becraft and Lochlan Becraft. The family would like to acknowledge the great friendships Len had with Danny Lavers, Frank Ferguson, Nealie Kirkland, and his two sisters-in-law, Brenda and Marie Crellin. In addition to his love for vintage cars, Len spent many years as a Construction Superintendent, overseeing such projects as the Guilford Sheraton, the Iona plant, the expansions of VGH, RCH, Surrey Memorial and St Paul's Hospitals, and many projects at UBC, including the Anthropology Building. Donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation are appreciated.

From a Family in the neighbourhood.

Our sincere condolences on the loss of your father. As we never knew him personally, he always gave us a friendly wave and a little smile as we walked our children to and from school past his home. We were always envious of him mowing his lawn with his ride on mower, and would joke with him to ride down the street to do our lawn. We enjoyed looking at the beautiful flowers he grew in his front garden and always would do a double look if he drove one of his "cool" vehicles out on the town. He will be missed on the street and we will always remember his kindness. Our thoughts are with your family. May he rest in peace.

Mark, Sue and Ally....So very sorry for your loss. I only met him once as I wasn't in BC for a long time. Got a good first impression of him as a genuine, grounded person. My thoughts are with you. Take care.
