I´m so sorry I´ve had no idea to recently told I miss living over there I grew up living just a couple of doors over in the great big house. They both watched all of us grow up. They´re like another set appearance to us. You are dearly missed R. I. P

I am a cousin of Len. I always loved his stories of being a police officer in Cleveland. At the time, that seemed like such a huge city. I love my Aunt Verge and Len so much.

Dear Virgie. I´m so very sorry to hear about Lenny passing. You were such a dynamic team. He was such a bigger than life character with SO many stories to share. From the Harbor Patrol to Elvis he had a connection. I enjoyed every conversation we shared. He performed weddings and always made them personal and special. His bow hunting skills were legendary and he kept the trophies as proof. I have only great memories of Lenny.

My condolences to the Rock family. I worked and hunted with Lenny many years ago. I was lucky enough to listen to his narratives about police work and hunting. Another one of the good guys gone,RIP till we meet again on the other side.

Leonard, I am very very sorry I can't be there to send you up to heaven. You helped me to become a cop in 1967 when the world was in a mess. There is so much I want to say but chemo made me forget so many great things you taught me. One was how to shoot a bow and arrow. You were the best in the country. Thanks Lenny for making me a great person ( I say that in all humility) and a good cop. You were so very fair to people bad and good people. Sleep with God now Lenny you...
