What a wonderful man! Leonard had such an infectious smile you could not help but smile back. He welcomed me into the family without hesitation and I truly felt the love. You are all in that place that no one wants to be and yet it is a place we must all face one day. May you find peace and love from family and friends to help you through this most difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 says "For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes on what is seen, but not what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
Mr. Taylor lived a long and glorious life on this earth with a wonderful family and now he will live eternally with the LORD. He could not be more blessed! While your hearts ache for him and it will take time to adjust I sincerely hope you find peace in knowing his Spirit lives within you and he is walking gloriously with the Lord.
Sincerely,
Anissa King

To Sharine, Chris and James, Erick and Kim and the Buddin and Taylor families, We truly mourn the painful loss of your father with you. He became Dad and Grandfather to all of us as we spent time with him over the past 30 years. We will always remember his laugh, his smile, his warm heart and his familiar Canadian "Eh". He will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Our love, prayers and support are with you all now and in the coming months. Whatever you need, we are here for you. We love you all! May God's grace and comfort carry through this time.

Sharine, Chris, Jamie. And families.
It is with a very heavy heart that I send our condolences. Your dad was a true gentleman head to toe. I'll miss that deep voice of his calling me just to say hi or to see everyone was doing. I'll miss our dinners at our camper and either your dad or I just popping in to say hi to each other. Len was very proud of each of you and your families. We joked a lot about how he had purchased his third JCB as he was always a Case man. All I can say is to hang onto all your wonderful memories going inside of your hearts. I know I'm the lucky one to have had the honour of calling your dad my friend.

Have known this man all my life, just shook his hand and talked to him about 8 - 10 days ago in the TD bank. One of my favorite people I have known, used to ride in the dump truck with him when I was about 10 or 12 years old. Have had a lot of laughs and times together all through our lives. I will miss him.

Dear Sharine, Chris and Jamie,
Jackie and I send you all our love and condolences. Mr. Taylor was such a hard working, salt of the earth and friendly man. His kindnesses to our family (who were always trying to adjust living in what seemed like the wilderness to us) were much appreciated and I can't count how many times he came to our rescue (like when the raccoons invaded our cottage-smiles). He handled it all with grace and strength. In fact, your entire family from your beautiful mother Connie, to your wise Grandmother or even your humorous Uncle Ronnie treated us like family and Colchester will always hold a special place in our hearts. I remember how he cried at Sharine's wedding-the only time I ever saw that happen and how others teased him. God bless him and may his soul rest in peace now that he has joined the ancestors. We still own the land he was born on (I recall him telling us the story) and we fondly hold it in our hearts as we do him and all of you.
Love always, Beth and Jackie James
