In Celebration of

Leonard Kwint

September 4, 1937 -  January 17, 2026

It is with great sadness the family of Len announces his passing. Len a lifetime resident of Port Credit/South Mississauga, was the beloved husband of Jean nee Rose for over 64 years. Proud father of Carrie (Jay) Simpson and Cheryl (Rob) Scarborough. Len was thrilled to have three grandsons, Taylor, Sean (Amanda) and Evan (Sarah). And even more thrilled to become Grumpy (great grandpa) in the last few years to Theo and Elliott. Len was survived by his brother Murray (Sue) and their family.

Len, a true car guy spent his working life as a mechanic, ending his career at the City of Mississauga. In his downtime he worked on his pride and joy in the garage and enjoyed travelling to car shows around the province. He will be missed by many of the car enthusiast friends he made along the way, the Saturday morning coffee gang and the Wednesday morning C & B group.

The family will receive friends on Saturday January 24th at Turner & Porter, Peel Chapel 2180 Hurontario St Mississauga from 2 -3 p.m. A service and reception will follow at the same location.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, (below under Make a Donation) or a charity of your choice.

Many many memories of Len from my childhood, a lot of my memories are fading away, however Len was always a bigger than life person who will forever be remembered.

There was a time where I had believed that he was a Canadian version of John Wayne.

RIP, you will always be remembered!

Condolences to the family and friends.

I am beyond words at the loss of such a great man, he was like a father to me & I will cherish all the memories I had of him growing up & the time I was able to spend with him as an adult, a greater human being you will never meet. My deepest sympathies to Jean, who I looked up to as my 2nd mother & to Carrie & Cheryl who were like sisters to me. He will be missed by more people than can be imagined.
