Doug and Lynne Ross wrote a sympathy message

“Len, when I read Joan’s obituary this morning, it took me back to our voyage on Sagona from Halifax to Coombes Cove with you, Ray and Rob LeMoine, one of the great memories of my life. The experience of visiting the South Coast of Newfoundland is one so few people in the world have lived. I’m so lucky you invited me to come along. And the bagpiper who played for us in New Campbelltown. And Joan’s moose stew. Wonderful memories. My condolences, Doug Ross, Chester, NS”
