He is survived by brothers Raymond (Inez) and Sam (Rita). He is also survived by the mother of his children Catherine Barranti and his present wife Beverly. He leaves behind several nieces and nephews.

I will always remember when Lenny and my dad would blast the console stereo for hours on Friday nights and my sister and I would dance around. The best parties I ever attended! The end of an era.

Peace
