October 12, 1948 - June 18, 2009
Leonard Lawson, 60 suffered a sudden and unexpected heart attack Thursday morning while surrounded by friends doing what he loved.
He was a life long resident of the Seattle area graduating from Lincoln High School in 1966. Len served in the National Guard after high school before beginning a 30 year career at Harborview Medical Center.
Len love life, he was an Eagle Scout and so are his sons. He loved football, cars, road trips and reading.
Len spent many years volunteering as a canoe and first aid instructor. Since retirement, 7 years ago he became more actively involved in his Church, especially in the area of mentoring young teens.
He is survived by his wife, Katherine of 16 years, sons Sean and Aarron, brothers Larry and Lester, step children Matt and Amanda, 3 granddaughters Kaitlyn and Annabelle and Makayla and many other relatives and dear friends.
May we all find comfort knowing that Len now lives forever in the presences of God.
Thank you all for your love thoughts and prayers.
