Len was a voice of confidence and reason and always had a way of making you feel good about yourself when speaking with you.
He was a man with a huge personality and a prominent business figure and played an integral role in shaping the town of Exeter. He was the president of Exeter Produce and Veri Hydroponics for nearly 55 years and various other companies over the years.
