Not sure what to say?

What a wonderful surprise to see Len's picture in the obituary page once again. He was so much fun and, along with Micky, was the consummate lover of other people.

I knew Len early in the 1970's, I was introduced to him by his daughter Laurie, my partnner at the time. He was always generous and kind to me. Maia Godet

I had the great honor of knowing Leonard through a business relationship. He was working occasionally at the time we met and became less and less active in the office of Knapp Lumber in his last years. But, he would call from time to time just to check in and make sure that all was well and that we had what we needed. It was always a gift when I would receive his call.

When Len was on the schedule, I looked forward to captivating stories about his experiences during WW II. He told them well always at my beckoning. Our entire office is saddened by his passing.

Andy, Laurie and Ellen, I loved your parents and feel so blessed to have known them through Trinity. Len and Mickey had such warmth and those brilliant smiles which lit up any space they occupied are sorely missed. May you find comfort in knowing how much they were both loved and respected.

Leonard had a delightful love of life that was evidenced by his constant smile.

Len was inspirational. He never lost his interest in people. He set an example of how to age with courage, grace and happiness.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Len while excercising at the Good Sam Cardiac Rehabilition Center. He was quite a character and had a wonderful cheery disposition. Unfortunately I will not be able to come to the services. I took a tumble on New Years Eve and am still having trouble getting around. My prayers are with you all.
Deepest condolences,
