His passion included his love for nature and animals. He enjoyed taking his dog Shadow hiking in the woods for morals and ginseng.

Many would say he was a very humble kind man. He had a gentle soul but was a huge jokester and loved making others laugh. He loved helping everyone he could. But above all he had a very generous heart of gold as he gave the love of his life Pamela a kidney without a second thought 25 years ago this year.
He worked for Steel Supply for 27 years. He also worked for Barney’s Landscaping a number of years.

Lenny you were such a special guy! You always made everyone smile! You will be missed by all who knew you. Happy hunting in heaven. Hugs to Pam, Melinda, and your whole family ?
I was Lenny and Pam’s neighbor for just about 10 years. He was a very kind person. If my boys or I needed to borrow a tool or needed a hand with anything, Lenny would always help. Unfortunately, I hadn’t seen him for 4 or 5 years before his passing. The world lost a truly good man. My heart and prayers go out to Pam, his daughter and the rest of his family and friends. He will be greatly missed.
