The family of Leonard,
I had met him at his sister Rose Marie service here in Lincoln. We didn't get to talk long. He was sure a very fine man, as we found Rose Marie to be a wonderful freind. We had e-mailed before her service to receive information , as I needed to tell the Lincoln Czech Chapter.
I am so sorry for your loss of Len and Rose Marie, they will be greatly missed.
Our thoughts and prayers to the families and freinds.

Len and I became instant friends when we were involved in the startup of River City Roundup. He was a master at attention to detail. Plus, he had a great sense of humor. He always managed to get me into western clothes! I told him my grandparents weren't cowboys! Len will be missed. Mike Boyle
