Dear D'Orlandos,
Leonard was a special man and I am very proud that he was my brother-in-law. I will miss him and his sense of humor. I am glad he got to see his children grow into fine, kind and successful adults. I'm sure it gives him peace now. Diane and Gina, may God give you extra strength and blessings for being by his side until his suffering was over.
My love and sympathy to all of you,

Dearest Diane,
we are so sorry for your loss. We hope you can find comfort in knowing that you did all that was humanly possible to care for Leonard. You did the same for your mother, father and sister. If you are not an angel then they don't exist. God bless your tender heart,
The Laine Family

Diane:

We first met Lenny at your Dad's viewing and though we really did not know him well, other people present told us that he was a great guy. Please accept our sympathy in this time of your loss.

Diane,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Lenny. There is nothing that I can say that will lessen the pain of losing someone with whom you have spent so much time. All I can say is that I love you, you are always in my thoughts. You and your family have been a part of my life since my life began and though we may have lost touch periodically over the years, there was a reason why we ran into each other at PetSmart several times over the last few months. It was a time for you to reconnect with those who love you. I will be here for you now, if you need me. Stay strong
