Lenny befriended me 52 years ago when I moved to New Brighton with my family. We were friends for many years,until I moved to New Jersey and sadly
lost contact with each other. I was very sad to hear of his passing just recently,
My prayers will go out to him and his family.

I remember Lenny from his visits to our house in Staten Island and Sea Bright. He was always the life of the party and brought laughter to any and all who came in contact with him. My condolences to Margaret Mary and the family on this loss.

To the Borg Family: You are more then friends you are my family. Mr. Borg taught me so much from the times he coached me, to working for him selling trees, to having the honor to coach with him. He watched me grow from a boy to a man, he was a big reason as to who I am today. He loved life and lived it to the fullest.

Lenny brought hope; love; laughter; smiles; joy and encouragement to my Mom Helen BENENFELD and others at Care One Holmdel. It was my honor and privilege to have known him and to call him a friend.
My deepest sympathies to the family.

Such sad news to hear on what should have been such a happy time of year. "Perhaps they are not really stars but rather windows to heaven that allow our loved ones to look down and watch over us." May the entire Borg family be blessed with many a starry night.

Margaret,
What a great guy Lenny was! I still remember him when he came to the Hungerford Prom. I remember thinking if the guy dancing on the dance floor was hired entertainment. Then you told me it was your husband Lenny. I felt that I had known him from all the stories you told me. Then when I finally met him he was truly larger than life. I felt that I had known him all my life after just a few minutes of talking to him. He will be missed.
