Lenny was a good & thoughtful guy. Sometimes, while driving by his house, I’d see him working in the yard & stop to chat. He was always kind to me & I enjoyed his insights into politics & life. He was a bit of roadside philosopher & he will be missed. My sympathies to Patty, Lenny, Jr., & Dan.
Doug Rutti
Lenny certainly knew what it took to persevere in his life, job, family and faith. A blessing to see his work ethic, commitment to Christ and family to the end. May the Lord keep him safe now forever and the family be blessed forever.

Patty, Len and Danny I am so sorry for the loss of Lenny. I have worked closely with both Lenny and Patty for so many years. Lenny was a very caring person who always wanted to hear how things were going with you first! Although Lenny fought a very tough battle, he was always positive and had faith in the Lord. God bless you all and I know you will find strength in knowing Lenny is at peace in Heaven.

I did not know Lenny outside of our Saturday men’s group at St WillRob. But with us Lenny was committed, passionate about his faith. His sincerity and deep love and concern was an inspiration to our group. He will be missed. May God bless him, and wipe away every tear in His heavenly home. God love you Lenny… we all do.
