Dear Dot and Boys, Judy and I were saddened to read of Len's passing. He will always be remembered by us and countless others as one who used his smile nuscles a lot more than his frown muscles.More importantly, his thoughtfullness and willingness to help others, will hold him in the highest esteem with our creator. We are so glad that we were able to attend the STMUMC 50th anniversary last Oct, where we able to spend a few minutes with Len. Yes, he will be deeply and forever missed; however, the four of you have memories that one would hope and pray will sustain you in this incomprehensible time of loss. With warmest personal regards, we will keep you in our prayers, Ken and Judy Roberts, Mesa, AZ....
