What sad news! Len was one in a million, that’s for sure. I’m so glad to hear he had fun with you all right up to the end. He always loved a good story. He sure had a good life & I hope that is a comfort to you all.

We’all miss that great laugh. Len was a great neighbour and friend to our family. I always enjoyed his quick wit and kind heart. There will be some good kitchen parties in Heaven.
Hello, please accept my condolences on Len’s passing;
I had the pleasure of helping Mr. Wright with his Financial Planning for a number of years, while I was at ScotiaMcleod. I remember, particularly, the conversations we had before he was convinced that he could spend the money to buy a new car, without affecting his overall investment plans, and how much he enjoyed that purchase. He was always a gentlemen and I looked forward to our meetings, he was very open and you never had to guess what he was thinking! He will be missed.
I was so sad to hear the news that “Mr. Wright” passed away.
Len was always ready for a detailed conversation about almost anything. He shared many of his travel adventure stories, had discussions about a great book he had just finished reading or challenged you with his ideas about current events.
The thing I will always remember about our dear friend is his laughter.
May he rest in peace and enjoy lots of laughs with Dorothy, Hugh and Rita and all of the loved ones that have gone before him.
We are all better for having Len in our lives.
With love,
Andrea, Shelagh and Zachary Ongaro
Mr. Wright, I always looked upon you with respect and admiration. You always found time to share a moment of your time which often involved a chuckle or two. When I moved away from London, I would look forward to the opportunity to visit with you when I was in town. You’ll be missed.
