Faina Family,
I am sorry that I could not make it to Len's wake..My wife Peggy is in a Nursing Home at Riderwood and not doing very well..I spend every day from 9AM to 8PM with her. In the past l5 days I have had three nights sleep and I am worn out..I want you to know that we loved Faye and Len and they were our best friends..We remember their great parties. The card games after work and our car pool with Ray Wren, Tom Horrigan and Paul Dickum..We were on our way home in a snow storm and the traffic on Georgia Ave. was very slow, we were stopped in traffic in from of liquor store Dickum jumped out of the car ran into the store purchased a six pack and got back before the traffic started moving. The KofC dances were great.. We had had a great life great friends and God was always looking out for us. Len and Faye are always in our prayers. God Bless you all..;.

To the Family,
May God give you the comfort and strength you need to endure your loss. Look forward to the fulfillment of the wonderful promise at Rev.21:4, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning mor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."
My sympathy goes out to all the family.

My deepest condolences to Donna, Sharon, Mrs. B and your families. Uncle Len always seemed larger than life and I shall always cherish how he and Aunt Faye welcomed me into their home. Especially once Uncle Len discovered my absolute fear of birds, he would graciously chase their bird around, return it to it's cage before I got to the front door! I shall miss him and that hearty laugh. May all the precious memories sustain you all and I know he is at peace with God.

Love,
Debbie Ingel
