Lenny was a great guy who had an uncanny ability to directly connect with many of the defendents to have them understand situation. I was always pleased to have his assistance with clients. He was a true professional who did his job extremely well.

I had the good fortune to meet Mr. and Mrs. Rodriguez as a young freshman in college. Their daughter Isabelina was the very first friend I had made. She was sweet warm and loving and as i found out, just like her parents. I was very fortunate because as anyone who knows them, I was treated as a family member and it meant the world to me. My sincere condolences and prayers to the whole family for your sad loss.

Don Leonardo was a kind hearted man, he introduced my parents to The Cruzsillistas and was a dear friend to my late father Cristobal “Don Tito” for many years. Rest In Peace Sir and thank you for your service in keeping us safe and free.

What a life of service to our country, our community and to family. He leaves a caring, loving family and many friends and colleagues to carry on his memory. What a role model. He was so lucky to have such a strong, beautiful life partnership with his wife. Their five kids do them both proud. The world needs more stories of love and devotion like this. As the good book says, "Love never ends."

I met Lenny through his work as an interpreter. His kindness and patience was well known, and my clients and I were lucky to have him working on our behalf.

Dear Rodriguez Family,

Since we moved out of the area we don’t always catch these important notices.

We are so sorry to you all for your loss.

I think of Lenny as a legend. He was involved in everything! Always a presence.

I remember he had cancer many years ago. You thought that could’ve been his final days but he survived it. He told me how his family surrounded him with love & care during that time.

He lived a long life! You are so fortunate to have had him as a father,
father-in-law, grandfather etc....I see his character reflected in his family whom he loved dearly.

In Sympathy,

Paul & Julie Andruszkiewicz

With his expert ability to interpret and his calm and dignified demeanor, he made many very difficult situations much more understandable and respectful for countless individuals in the Court system.
He was a colleague with whom everyone enjoyed working.
His pride in and love for his family was always evident.
Lenny was a true professional and gentleman.
He will always be missed.
