My sincerest condolences to Marg and family. Len was so funny and amazing, and helped me out so much with everything regarding my house, my lawn, and had loads of landscaping advise for me. I always looked up to him and asked him to keep an eye out, and asked him for his opinions. He was always so proud to show me his own beautiful gardens, and was always up for a chit chat and a glass of wine. I will miss him alot. He was an amazing man. Thinking of all of you during this difficult time. Hugs to all of you! Becky Castillo

To Marg and the Boreham family
My heart breaks for your loss. Len was an amazing person who made everyone who was lucky enough to circle in his orbit feel lighter and feel seen. Rogers Ave. has lost an amazing neighbour and friend. If there is snow in heaven, the angels can look after it. Len can enjoy putting his feet up while he keeps tabs on his beautiful family from his recliner in heaven. Thank you for being an amazing neighbour, Len.

Condolences to Margie and Family,
I had the privilege of working with Leonard for about 19 years. He was a man who loved his wife and was extremely proud of his family. He always had a smile and a greeting, he loved a good breakfast with extra tater tots, a cold glass of milk, and he had a joke, not always appropriate, ready to share. (Leonard knew how to pick a good pair of melons during cantaloupe season.) He was often skeptical of change but was quick to adapt. Thank goodness he took a cell phone for a particular fertilizer season in the early 2000’s!
Oh the stories he could tell…
Thanks for the memories friend,
Stephen and Stephanie Hutton

Brian and Kathy Coleman send their heartfelt sympathy to all of Len’s family and friends. He was such a valued friend and associate of Kathy’s dad and grandfather (Ken and Fred Dunsford) at the Great Star and the Hitching Post and so well liked by all. He always gave such good advice on the products for gardening and other things and with such good humour. He is missed.

Sincerest condolences to Marg and family. I remember Len's jokes he told at the firefighter functions. Always had us laughing. Also he was so good with the kids when he portrayed Santa Claus at the fire hall. And he had the best suit.
