Bobbie, Christine and the rest of family and friends, my condolences and sorrow go out to you all for the loss of J.R. Robert Lenny Brewer (formerly of Easeway Convenience in the 1980s), where I was so lucky to get to know the whole Richardson family.

My family grew up next door to the Richardson family when they lived on upper Van Anden St. My brother and Junior were great friends and enjoyed playing wiffle ball as well as basketball together. We were very sorry to hear of Junior’s passing. Our condolences to his children, grandchildren but especially to his siblings who we knew so well. Rest in peace Junior.

Lenny was a good friend for over 60 years. He was a kind gentle man who always had a smile and a wise crack waiting for any circumstance. RIP my friend

Went to school with Lenny and was in many of his classes with him back in the days of West High. He was a quiet, gentile guy and always had a wisecrack or two. Condolences to the Family and Friends of Lenny. "Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow." RIP Lenny
