So sorry to hear of Len`s passing. Our deepest sympathy to Helen & family. Len was a great person & we have many good memories of our times with you during our children's school time together. Gary remembers well the efforts Len & he went to when our girls were in Grade One. Neither would give up the cause. You are all in our thoughts & prayers. We are there for you even if we are currently away.
Chris, Yvonne & Family, We are so sorry to hear about your loss. May it comfort you to know that others are thinking about you during this time. The Bettencourts
Andrea, please accept our sincerest condolences, and know that we are sending our warmest thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this difficult time.
From the Pallett Family. Helen, I was looking forward to seeing you both again soon, and am very sad to hear about your loss. Len was a vibrant individual and it was my pleasure to have had the opportunity to know him these past few decades. While I will not be able to attend the visitation or funeral, please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Helen & Family Just want you to know your in my thoughts and prayers and that i will always treasure my friendship with Len of over 20 years . Sorry i can`t visit as i am out of town for work . Regards Dan Thrasher
Len, rest in peace
Our heartfelt condolences go out to the entire LeTissier family - and what a wonderful family it is. Al and I will miss Len greatly - especially our lively discussions, political and otherwise. We will especially miss Len's sardonic sense of humour and deviousness. We always admired Len's honesty, love of his family and his faith in God. Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings to greet the dawn while it is still dark. With love and friendship, Sandra & Al
I genuinely regret your loss. No one better than God, understands the depth of your pain and can help you cope with your disquieting thoughts. He is called the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort and he cares for you. The Bible describes a time in the future when mankind will not be subject to criminals, violence, accidents, sickness, and death. Jehovah God promised that soon, he will wipe out every tear from our eyes, death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. (Psalm 37:29; Revelation 21:4) Until that day comes, I hope that in due time you receive God’s peace that excels all thought, so that it will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.
Chris and Andrea What a small world we live and I had the pleasure of meeting your father while doing treatment at LHSC. He made me laugh and made me smile daily while he was doing treatment. Sorry for you loss

Cindy and I are truly sadden to here of your Fathers passing on Saturday. He was truly a great man with a flair for a good conversation of many topics. Len had such a command of the English language and could keep you interested in any conversation. During one of your back yard events I remember having a conversation about politics, it was one moment in time I will never forget. We talked politics for what I thought was about five minutes. My wife informed me later in the day that it was more like an hour and a half. Most conversations with Len were just like that, where minutes passed like seconds time fleeted away without notice. It has been an honor to have known your Dad and the world has truly lost a great man. Sincerely, Darcy

Marie and I are so saddened to learn of Len's passing on Saturday. Got to know Len through the local L-F Riding Federal Conservative Association Board and one or two federal election campaigns where did his masterful job! Len was one of my newer friends and I was saddened when he left the active field of Politics however saw him at times at White Oaks Mall where I presumed Len was exercising as us older chaps should! The Le Tissier family and London Community have truly lost a great person! Sincerely, Nick len became one of my friends and was sorry to see him retire from "politics
