For the past nine years, Shirley and I have enjoyed the many lunches and dinners we had with both Blanche and Len. Len was so knowledgeable as well as being a great entertainer. We admired him and will never forget this wonderful man who made such a deep impression in our lives. We miss him.

Dear Blanche, Randi, & Rich, Jeff, Cary & Alec,
We are so sorry about your loss. We met both Leonard and Blanche when they came to pick up their beautiful grandsons from our dessert condo where our son Gary had brought them. Leonard was very warm and friendly, and we're sorry that we didn't get to know him and Blanche better.
Our thoughts are with you.
