Obituary for Leonard Frederick Eaves

With heavy hearts yet grateful spirits, we announce the passing of Leonard (Len) Frederick Eaves on February 25, 2024 at the Windsor Regional Hospital (Ouellette campus).

Len, our bright light in life was born in Windsor, Ontario on November 20, 1929, second oldest of six siblings to Nellie (Larcher) Eaves and William Eaves. Survived and cherished by his wife Kay, his daughter Carolyn and cherished family and friends.

A graduate of Ford Trade School, Len spent 36 years working in Research in the Physics department at University of Windsor.

Len was loved and admired by all that knew him. His sharp sense of humor and his love of comedy and science fiction invoked many laughs and deep conversations.

He loved many things: his wife Kay (the love of his life), Carolyn (his favourite and only daughter) Leonard Cohen, Anthony Bourdain, animals, the great outdoors, camping and adventure, gardening, music and time spent with wonderful friends and family. He created short movies, wrote many a poem, built useful things and soaked in Fiction and Non-fiction stories.

Len will be deeply missed. We will hold all the wonderful memories of him in our heart always. His gentle soul, his love and kindness will never be forgotten.

In keeping with Len’s wishes, cremation has taken place and there will not be any services.

In lieu of flowers, charitable donations can be made to The Kidney Foundation of Canada and Canadian Wildlife Federation.
