To the Hynes Family
Met Len in the mid-80’s through Minor Hockey when he coached St.John’s Pee Wee’s and I was coaching Avalon and the bond was instant. Some 30 years later Len always called me by my first name. We would always chatted in passing about life and sports. A gentleman in every way respect. RIP Len.
