Leonard M. Bejtlich passed away on March 31 at 80 years of age after a brief illness. He is survived by his second wife Nancy J. Bejtlich of Jonestown Texas and his three children Michael M. Bejtlich of Rochester MA, Nancy A. Benson of Mattapoisett MA, and Amy A. Silva of Marstons Mills MA, and six grandchildren including Matthew and Emily Bejtlich, Connor and Casey Mackenzie and Jacob and Emma Silva.
Len was a patented physicist and engineer who spent much of his professional life working in manufacturing environments such as General Electric Co. and various start-up ventures in the computer refurbishment and repair industry. He was an avid golfer and tennis player and had sailed with family and friends from Down East Maine to the Florida Keys and the Bahamas aboard his 30’ sloop “Arlia.”
Len loved music, played several instruments, and was co-founder of the Twilight Concerts Series with his wife Nancy in Jonestown Texas. A devoted husband and companion to his wife Nancy, Len spent many summers with his children and grandchildren fishing, shell fishing, barbecuing, and sailing, particularly around Buzzards Bay and Nantucket Sound.
No formal service will be held. Instead, Len requested that his ashes be spread out to sea by those closest to him. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

Miss you Len, and that big, amusing smile! Sorry we were unable to invent that new concept lawn mower that we spent hours on after work at GE… but it turned out to be The Weedwacker…if we were smart enough at that time (1963). Love to Nancy and the family. Carol and I are still here in Ohio, near GE! See you soon. John
