My treasured step-father. I’ll always regret noting setting things straight with you, I hope you understand, hopefully, when we meet on the other side, we can have that talk.
Thank you Amanda Michelle for reaching out to me, for the letter and the photos. Lennie was a true Renaissance man, brilliant and capable of doing anything except beating cancer. We shared almost 24 years together. We all have regrets! Remember the good years always. Those were years he loved you as his own. Make him proud that he made a difference in your life. We both loved an incredible man!
