I had the pleasure of meeting Len many years ago when I was starting in the framing business, he was a real gentleman and a pleasure to talk to.

May he rest in peace.

I'm very sad to hear this news and knowing that Wessex Picture is very much a family business, his loss will be felt through out the whole of the business which he built. My condolences to all at Wessex. He will be greatly missed.

I so sorry to hear this news.
Len was one of the first people I dealt with as a new framer and he was always happy to help with advice and guidance. Quite a character, who's memory will live on in the framing industry for years to come.
My condolonces to Ashley , Phillip and all of the Younger family as this sad time.
