Dale and Family. I am so sorry to hear about Len's passing. What a wonderful and kind man. I will always cherish playing with Lenny on the Express "over 40" soccer team. He loved the game and was aggressive when he played. God Bless Lenny!

To Steven & all your families and friends, I was so sorry to hear of Mr. Cuccaro´s passing. Steven is my personal trainer at Gold´s Gym, and we have become acquainted & share family stories. I have a sister in Cleveland, OH, 90 on May 28th, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer´s a few years ago, and Steven talked about his father´s health problems, & his subsequent passing & both his father & my sister had the same issues; my dear sister is still alive truly by the Grace of God as we´ve heard many times this year that she could pass at any time, but Father God only can set her time. My sincere condolences go out to each of you on his loss. But, you will always have the many memories to share, and he had many activities he enjoyed & it seems had a very active and fun life. Mr. Cuccaro is well now, and resting in peace, and some sweet day, you´ll all be together again. May God give to each of you His Peace and Comfort in the coming days. Love & Prayers, . Anne Barba

Len was a valuable and affable member of the Timber Truss team . He always was friendly and took responsibility for his job and others as well. He always had a grin on his face and was kind and knowledgeable to his customers. Len was a genuine team player and always beyond expectations to satisfy hood duties. Len was fun loving and always up for something fun to do. He was a great Shriner and added to the camaraderie of his friends there. His bubbly friendship will be greatly missed!

Lennie and Dale attended the weekly gathering for Bluegrass music at The Coffee Pot on Wednesday night. We all became good friends over 25 years. They attended many parties and gatherings of the same friends. Lennie was a great guy and married a great gal, Dale. So sorry to hear of Lennie's passing.

Lenny was a no nonsense friend. He loved his family and his friends and was a patriotic supporter of his country. It hurts my heart to know he is gone, but it gives me comfort to know that he is no longer suffering in our imperfect world. Rest in peace my dear friend. Jim Garrett
