Walking up Mason Street hill was always an event but worth it. Dunn Park was a jewel for us kids in the 60's. Lenny and the guys would sometimes bust me up. Although I was about five years younger, I knew that they were kidding. If I needed their help, I knew that they would be there to help me. My thoughts and prayers to the family.

Sue - Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Lennie. May his kind spirit live on in you and your family. He was a great guy in high school when I know him best. I'm sure he is already enjoying his eternal reward.
