LENARD LORENTZ FORNESS (1948 - 2015) It is with great sadness that we announce that Len has lost his two year battle with cancer. He passed away on June 25, 2015, surrounded by people who loved him. Len will be missed for his terrific sense of humour and his ability to enjoy everything he did. Whether at work or during his relaxation times, Len always found ways to make us laugh and feel good about the day. We all learned very quickly to hang on for dear life if one of Len's stories started out with, "It's an old Romanian tradition." He always gave to others, never expecting anything for himself in return. Len felt that everything he has ever done has moulded him into the person he was. He loved every job he ever had and was proud of the contributions he was able to make. He had an insatiable thirst for knowledge and life experiences. Len was a unique and wonderful character and we shall not see his equal again. To all who knew and loved Len, the family has requested that in lieu of flowers or donations, take someone you love out for a nice supper and toast the life of Lenard Forness.
