To Marjie & all the Cusacks, I send my deepest condolences. I remember so many fun days especially back as far as Saint Jo's -Lenny WAS always smiling-just like the photo here. I wish you peace, fond memories and comfort through the support of friends and extended family.

If you graduated from Needham High from the late '60's through the '70's, chances are you graduated with a "Cusack". Kevin, Lenny (Tommy), Dickie, Joyce and Janet were all in my "generaton" from the "high school on the hill". Tommy loved wrestling. Tommy, Kevin Glynn and Paul & Mike Fonteccio were a crew. I loved Tommy's laugh and every girl loved to dance with him---boy could he dance! The Needham Cusacks expanded every time I turned around, but it wasn't until I married into the "Cusack" family that I discovered the family tree was in fact a FOREST!!! God blessed us with our memories of Tommy---we hope that memories give each of his family members joy to sustain you. Love Laurie (Baldelli) Carney and John

I went to High School with Lenny. Not to confuse anyone, but his High School friends called him Lenny.
Although I remember his family calling him Tommy. Whatever you want to call Lenny, we can all agree
that he was an outstanding person. Lenny was one of the nicest and kindest persons I ever knew.
He always had a smile and was a good friend to everyone. I just wanted to write a note to let his family
know that he was well thought of 40 some odd years ago as he is today. Lenny came from a great family
and was a class act. My deepest condolences to the Cusack family.
