Sherry, Please know you are in my heart and prayers during this time of unexpected loss. Lenny was such a great guy always with a cheerful smile and laugh. May God's big arms of loving comfort and peace be wrapped around and carry you through this time of transition. Much love, Nancy J Fay Higley.

"A soldier has passed away today." The final battle is now over and peace has been restored. You are now relieved from your post. A job well done fellow Vietnam Veteran. America thanks you for your service to our country in the defense of freedom. We all are grateful for your stepping up to the plate when your country needed you the most. The final bugle has sounded and taps is about to sound ending a successful career as a nation“s defender. Farewell fellow veteran. A Navy Vietnam Veteran.

Lenny was a true friend and confidant of mine during our high school junior and senior years, especially when we were playing basketball together for SAHS. He was always there at my back, and made me smile even whenever we were together.

Sherry and family
So very sorry for your loss. Nard was a brother to me and I never came to Smethport without contacting him. He will be terribly missed.

Lenny "Doc" Anderson and I served together in Vietnam during most of 1969. Sherry just reached me today in Texas. Lenny served as a Medic with our Recon Platoon out walking the jungle. Have so much more to add in a longer remembrance message soon. And will be spreading this sad news with his fellow Infantry Brothers and families. Rest in Peace, Doc, my Military Friend and Brother.
