Dear Pat - loving sympathy to you and your family. I just learned of Len's passing and am heartbroken. I remember often the significance we played in each other's lives so many years ago. If my being in D.C. served a positive purpose, it was Pat meets Len. The rest is history! I send much love and many prayers at this sad time.

We have been unable to get your home address .

Dear Latkovski Family: I was so sorry to hear of Dr. Latkovski's passing. He touched my life as a phenomenal Russian History Teacher, an incredible father and mentor.

I can speak to the many times, expressed through his deeply-rooted Catholic beliefs, that he would talk of how proud he was of every single one of you at St. John's at Prospect Hall. He would beam with joy! And, to Mrs. Latkovski, I send my...

So sorry to learn of Leonard's passing. We shared many good and fun moments during our high school and college years. He was a 'heck of a tennis player' and always seemed to have my number.

All the best to Andy and other family and friends.

To everyone dr l touched

Sorry to hear of Len's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I want to express my deep sympathy for your loss. Dr. Latkovski was one of my history professors 40 years ago when I was an undergraduate at Hood College. I have many fond memories of him.

I was both shocked and saddened to hear of this great loss to you and your family . It is clear by reading all the other condolence messages that he was a man that touched many lives . How wonderful to be such an example of great love and kindness. May you find comfort in having so many that shared such admiration for Len. Much love to you ,
