“The world lost a magnificent man on July 5. Brother Len was passionate about everything and everyone,” the social media post reads. 

“He was always leading; whether it be riveting conversation, an artistic creation or a trip to new places. He loved a good laugh.”

“He continues on his spiritual journey. Living life full in his memory,” Catherine wrote.

Von Dohlen appeared on four episodes of Twin Peaks, as well as the spinoff movie Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

He played Harold, an acquaintance of Laura Palmer, the character whose death kicked off the series premiere.

Laura gave her secret diary to Harold, but her friends wanted access to it to help investigate her murder.

His arc on the show ended when Harold hanged himself, leaving a note in French that translated to:

“I have a lonely soul.”

Von Dohlen is also well known for his role in the 1984 flick Electric Dreams, in which he played an architect caught up in a love triangle with his computer.

He also played a villain in the 1997 movie Home Alone 3, the first to not feature original star, Macaulay Culkin.
