Len was an inspiration!

You did wonderful work within Cannabis Advocacy, Len; spoke to you only once, but you impacted me deeply. RIP.

Few realize how many important things Len did. One occurred in 1972 when I co-edited a book with him about "Gay Liberation".
John Lennon wrote and drew original material for us because of Len.

Bon Voyage Lenny. I will always miss you.

I met Len back in 1986, He taught me so much about gay history, our culture, and to be a proud gay man. He was my first relationship as a young man. I would very much like to get in touch with Kyle or his siblings - I don't know if there has been a service yet ? please contact me at 323 463 4266, That's a business line just ask for me, John Cantwell.
Thank You,

Len was way ahead of his time and I was challenged and inspired by his audacity and vision. A lot of us will miss him. Lily Tomlin, Los Angeles

To Len's loved ones: I'm so very sorry for your loss. I directed the staged reading of Len's play THE OY OF SEX, just last month in Santa Barbara. I wish he could have heard the laughs.

Len you were and continue to be an amazing, inspirational man. We have always appreciated your candid and contagious sense of humor. You will be missed by many.

Ray: I'm sorry I never got to know your brother. Looks as if you aren't the only brother with a very interesting life.

To the Richmond family: So sorry for your loss. Len sounds like a great guy to hang around with.
