Dear Rosemary,
Ken and I want to extend our deepest sympathy to you and your family. We were very sorry to hear that Lenny passed away. Ken always enjoyed working for Lenny when you were in Linwood and he was training horses. Fondly, Judy (Roy) and Ken White

Rosemary,
We were sorry to hear of Lenny's passing. I will always remember going to the barn with Eddy Milligan to see your horses. Lenny was always so wonderful with his horses. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Rose & Family,
I was sad to read about Lenny's passing. Looking at his picture brought good memories of working with him on the bread truck and at horse shows.
Hoping everybody is well.

Lenny was the judge in my first horse show at Summitwynds Farm in Jefferson, MA. Along with my first trophy, he gave me some great advice and was so kind. I was lucky enough to get to know him a little bit when he was at the farm. I have some very fond memories.
God Bless

Hi Rose,
Sorry to hear of your husband's death. Mike sent me the article from the paper. I know you will miss him, we had some great times together and fond memories of our visits to your home. Have peace in your heart and a smile on your face as you think back to, "the good times"! I am Mike Shadduck's sister.

Dear Sue, Becky and Mrs. Roy,
I will always remember seeing Mr. Roy and the girls riding down the hill on the horses or watching them training in the ball park across from their house, hanging around in the barn while they tended to the horses, waiting for the "Bread Man" to come to the house on Saturday nights to get rolls. Those were happy memories of life in Linwood. Your family was a big part my life and I offer my sincerest condolences at this time.
