My Wesley & Mandy Wedding

[bams50]

Hey Leonard, I don't know if you ever saw these, from South Bend 07:

Here you are when we were waiting in line to head to the parade:


That's Evyn's hand waving at you from my 60 Lark wagon, while we were on the track at the Proving Grounds:





Those were some good times. Looking forward to many more good times with you!

Great pictures of a handsome couple, Leonard! Your son looks like a clone of you! My own daughter was recently married in the Virginia Beach area last fall, but I wasn't able to have a Studebaker there for a sweet photo op like that. Thank you for sharing their special day.

Thanks for sharing those proud pictures and I hope each and every day will only get better for you.

Since this thread is still open, why not post greetings to Leonard here, in his own [possibly last, per Frank D] thread?

Leonard, we're pretty sure you can still read this, so have a Happy Birthday April 13th! BP

OK...HERE'S TO YOU LEN...

Happy Birthday

Don't know if he will see this or not.
Still best to send a card.

I now know what Wes looks like. At least what he looked like a few years ago. I have talked to him on the phone and emailed back and forth a number of times.
I still get a twinge of sadness when I thing of how I came to have Lenard's 52.

'Card has already been mailed, including a nice photograph of Leonard's former 1964 Daytona convertible amidst its three Astra White 1964 Daytona brethren on the front lawn. BP

Happy birthday, Leonard! AND... thanks for all you have contributed to the Studebaker experience. We miss "visiting" with you!

Great wedding photos Len! Thanks for sharing them with us, looks like a a great day! Love those 52 Studebakers!
Sorry to here of your illness, I spent most of last winter in hospital and rehab as well. And my wife and I are sending prayers your way. I can tell you, they work, proof is I'm still here.
Have a happy, happy Birthday Len!

I agree with you rockne10. Leonard was such a strong advocate for both Studebaker and the people on this site with his many, many contributions. I think we will get Leonard's attention if we can all send him a Birthday card (April 13th). I, too, feel it's best to send a card. This is something tangible, something he can hold in his hands, and know how many people still care for him. I'm not sure he can still comprehend reading from the screen, but I'm sure Wes or other family members can communicate 'birthday' cards to him.

LET'S FILL HIS MAILBOX ON APRIL 13TH!!
