BRICK, Leonard (Len) James - In loving memory of Leonard ""Len"" James Brick, 81 years, who passed away suddenly in Sudbury on December 7th, 2009 after a courageous battle with cancer. Beloved husband of Mildred (?Pete?) Florence Brick predeceased in 2006, who met and married in Kirkland Lake in 1951. Son of William James Brick and Barbara Jane Brick (both predeceased).

Cherished grandfather of Torrie, Dennis and Devon of Mississauga. Len was born in Merthyr Tydfill, Wales and immigrated to Kirkland Lake at the age of three months old. Leonard had a career in drilling and heavy equipment sales and services that spanned many miles having lived in Toronto, Sept Illes, Montreal, Winnipeg, Kirkland Lake and Sudbury prior to starting his own drilling firm in Sudbury in the mid 80's. During those years, he never did leave his roots from Kirkland Lake behind, visiting family and friends there often and eventually Len and ?Pete? made it their summer home with winters in Avon Park, Florida and visiting family and grandchildren en route. Leonard was an avid curler, golfer and loved hockey and football. He was an avid reader and enjoyed newspapers and staying current on ?what was going on? and was a great conversationalist.
