Len Pense

Every morning when I look at our beautiful backyard with my raised bed gardens off to one side behind a which picket fence, I think of you and the stimulating times we had talking about life in general and gardening in specific. Friends are rare. You were a rare and wonderful friend. I miss you and I miss our talks.

Len -

We all miss you.

I was thinking back to your seminars at the Get Prepared Expos where all seats were filled - standing room only - a compliment on how well you were respected.

And the weekly meet-ups in Springfield, MO where you taught classes on gardening...

Thank you for your humor, candor, and the wealth of knowledge you were so willing to share with those who were interested.

He was a great guy and a pleasure to work with. He was my friend

I will miss you Len, but I will never forget you and the great conversations we had about important life issues.

Many times I have told the story of how you got me the appointment with your doctor who arranged for me to immediately be seen by a specialist who diagnosed my cancer and got me set up with the right surgeon who immediately performed surgery to remove my tumor before my cancer became metastatic.

I will miss you Len, but I will never forget you and all you did for me and meant to me. Thank you for all the great talks we had. Thank you for being the connecting link in saving my life in 2013. God performed the miracle but you got me the appointment with the right doctor who arranged for me to see specialists immediately to diagnose my potentially deadly cancer and do surgery before it became metastatic.

It is my hope and prayer that you renewed your relationship with the...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

A true gentleman. Thankful we had the honor to meet Len and learn from him. Kind, knowledgeable, compassionate,
Extending our sympathy and prayers to his wife and family !

It was an honor and privilege to be a small part of Lens life. For several years he joined some of his guy friends for lunch on Thursday. We all loved seeing him come through the door. Len would always have fascinating stories and several corny jokes to share with us. We all will miss him dearly.

Sharon, thinking of you and your family during this trying time.
