Day 72- May 31- Uncle Len (Brown)

Uncle Len is the spouse of my Aunt Maxine. They were only down for a quick visit to their son, Chris, and his family around the corner from my parent's house. I went with Paul, Jessica, Landon and Walton for a walk up to see them this morning. It was a quick visit, but they were pretty busy, Aunt Maxine was watching Tookie (her grandson), who wanted to spend some extra time with his grandparents before they left. Uncle Len was hard at work painting Chris' work room in the basement.

Uncle Len is always at something, he's a very helpful to family and is very quiet and mild mannered. He tends to try and stay out of the spotlight most of the time, much like my brother Paul. For some reason in my mind's eye, I always remember him just as he looked today- shorts, very tanned, flip flops or sneakers- the kind of guy who would be very at home in Florida, poolside or strolling through the market. He's always very relaxed and chill. He used to work in the banking industry for most of his work life, but also dabbled in business here and there. He's retired now.
