LENNA BOROFF KUTNER

KUTNER, Lenna Boroff Lenna Boroff Kutner, age 68, of Gloucester and formerly of Auburndale, Plymouth, and Wayland, passed away on February 6, 2026, following a short battle with brain cancer. She was the beloved widow of Robert Kutner and the devoted mother of Daniel Kutner. She also leaves behind her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Susan and Richard Kutner, and their family; as well as her sister-in-law, Janet Kutner. A native of Brookline, Lenna attended the University of Massachusetts, Amherst for a bachelor's degree in elementary education and Northeastern University, where she earned a master's degree in public administration. She found joy in teaching, introducing middle schoolers to computers in the early 2000s, and with endless patience, doing the same for senior residents in Newton. She later volunteered her time as a librarian at the Auburndale Community Library, helping to keep it open as an independent entity. A lifelong animal lover, Lenna spent countless days walking her golden retriever Geti at Norumbega Park, making lifelong friends along the way and writing a children's book, The Magic of Norumbega, centered around the grounds' history as a former amusement park. A Celebration of Life will be planned for a later date, and interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Lenna's memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital at 501 St. Jude Place Memphis, TN 38105 or at stjude.org/donate
