This page is for the Italia Conti Tributes. Thank you for getting back to me and writing these lovely tributes about Lena. Keep them coming.
I was at school (contis) the same time as Lena. I remember a very happy little girl who lived with a friend of mine call Carmen. We were older than Lena but she seemed happy to be with us. I have lost contact with Carmen I'm sure she would like to speak about Lena.
I still find it hard knowing what happened to Lena she was a wonderful singer and performer with a larger than life personality, life can be so cruel, I will never forget her.

I attended the Italia Conti at the same time as Lena although I was a senior and she was in the junior school. I didn't know her well but saw her about the college on a daily basis. I remember Lena as a happy and cheerful person with everything to live for, she was so talented and confident yet modest and shy at the same time. A tiny frame with a huge voice! She was so liked. I'll never forget her pretty face, she was a thoroughly sweet & kind girl.

Lena was a little pocket rocket, yet so shy. She was so little and put into a world where everyone around her were total extroverts and she as I said was so very shy. Yet she had this amazing voice! She was such a lovely gentle soul, and always very quick to pass on praise to her friends, even in her quiet way. She was a really lovely person and I will always remember her fondly.
