It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Len Biddle, on February 8, 2025, who left us unexpectedly at the age of 84 years. Though his departure was sudden, his legacy of love, patience, and kindness will remain with us forever.
A devoted father, father-in-law, papa, pops, husband, brother, brother-in-law, and friend, cherished his family above all else. Len was extremely proud of the life he created and the opportunities he provided to his family by immigrating to Canada from England in 1975. He couldn’t be more proud and supportive of his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and treasured any time he could spend with his family. He was a quiet, emotional man who always welcomed a good debate and was always ready with a listening ear, a gentle word, and a warm embrace. Whether sharing stories, offering advice, or simply sitting in comfortable silence, he made those around him feel valued and loved. His presence was a steady anchor in the lives of his family, and his absence leaves a void that cannot be filled. While we grieve his sudden passing, we take comfort in the endless love and support and countless memories he gifted us.
Len will be greatly missed and forever remembered by his son Stephen (Desiree), his daughter Jacqui (Ken), his much-cherished grandchildren Jessica (Elton), Daniel (Julia), Shaelynn, and Christopher, his great-granddaughters Lily and Tessa, his half-brother Frank, many adored nieces and nephews and many dear friends. Len was predeceased by his beloved wife, Mary Biddle, sister, Laura Farquharson, brother Ed Biddle, and parents, Alfred and Dorothy Biddle.
In keeping with Len’s wishes, there will be no funeral. A private celebration of life will be held by immediate family.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you honour his memory by sharing kindness, patience, and love - just as he did every day of his life.
