To the entire Bellino Family:
As I scroll through the many loving tributes, I can tell that Lenny did not change from the young man that I knew him as. I consider myself very fortunate to have spent many of my early years knowing and loving the Bellino family and of course, the Meloon family. I am so very sorry for the loss of Lenny; it brought back many sweet memories for me. And I always remember the Bellino brothers as real "hoots" and the Bellino sisters as just a bit more the "mellow" members of the family. And of course, your Mom and Dad were very special people - as you all are. God bless the entire Bellino family; for you all, his children, his dear friends and co-workers, I wish you peace and strength as you continue on with your own lives. Please know how much I love you all and I was very sorry to see you all again at such a very sad occasion. Rest in peace Lenny. You are now with so many angels who went before you.
Love always, Julie Williams Potter.

To the Bellino Family,
My thoughts and prayers go out to each of you. Attempting to come to the realization that Lenny is no longer with us is emotionally crippling.
Although I always thought of you Sammy as a brother, I felt a special relationship with Lenny as well. He was a true leader and spirit whom so many wanted to be around. Lenny was one that could walk into any room, in any situation, and change the environment. He was a truly dynamic and well respected. I loved Lenny and will always cherish the memories that he provided me and my family through many phases of our lives. Your loss is shared by many who care and sympathize more than words can say.
Although I did not get a chance to speak to him often in recent years, he was always in my thoughts. Lenny called me twice during the period of my mother’s illness and passing. It meant a great deal to me and I will never forget his act of kindness. He was a great friend, as you are Sam.
May the memories of the laughter and love you shared with your brother bring you peace now and always and that you find strength in the love of family and in the warm embrace of friends. In deepest sympathy from my family; Kandice and kids, my father, Steve, Diane, and myself
Bless you,
Bob Bell, NU'84

Dear Bellino Family--
I was very sad today to hear of Lenny's very untimely passing. We were "Rook Buddies" in M Company at Norwich our first year there, and Lenny was only a couple of doors down from me. He always made us smile because he was always into something, and was a great asset to the Corps. Will miss you. Essayons-- Bell

To The Bellino Family,
My deepest sympathy on loss of your dad and brother. He was a great teammate and friend to us all with the Charlestown Townies Football Club. As I read these many tributes to Lenny I see that he never changed. Everyone who met him liked him immediately, he was a caring and loyal man and most importantly he made all of those he met feel better about themselves. People like Lenny do not come along very often and I am sure he will be missed by all whose lives he touched and by his many teammates. My deepest sympathy to you all.

Lenny,
I miss you soooo much . . . you were soooo nice to me. I remember when I was yelling, you came up to me and and asked me what was wrong. I told you that I wanted regular tea but we didn't have any. So, you went out of your way and went on a hunt to look for some for me. When you came back, you had a handful of it and told me to hide it somewhere so only I knew where it was. You were the best staff ever. I'm going to miss you everyday.

Dear Lenny,
You were the first one to welcome me at McLean. You made me laugh and smile more than I could imagine. You gave me faith and hope that I would get better. I believe you are watching over us in heaven. You and Bianca always made me feel better. You will always be remembered at McLean and never forgotten. Thank you so much for everything. I will pray for you and your family. Love always, S.C.

Having gone from Muraco School on with Lenny, I was fortunate to have enjoyed his friendship, and passion for football. Two of my sons also had the opportunity to share in Lenny's passion,and experience his "craziness" for football as well. I would like to let the Bellino Family know that Lenny has touched so many people along his way in life, and each has a story to share. I am so sorry for your loss,and share in your sorrow. He may not be with us any longer, however he can still bring a smile upon many faces, just think of Lenny. Our condolences to the Bellino Family, and his close friends.

Lenny was a great co-worker and a friend to many who worked here at the McLean Southeast ART. He was such a hard worker and he had a giant heart always expressing concern for the people around him. He was thoughtful and kind and the kids frequently asked about Lenny first. We are heartbroken and will never forget our friend Lenny.

Lenny was loved by all who knew him. At work, Lenny will be missed very much for his humor and ability to help clients and co-workers.
He was truly a very special person.

Lenny was a new friend and co-worker. We did not work together very long but we made a quick connection as fellow former powerlifters. Best wishes and condolences to his family.
