Dave. I want you to know how much I enjoyed knowing your dad. He was the highlight of the neighborhood & was so unselfish watching over the safety of the house where Heidi & Heather spent so much of their youth. As a dad who couldn’t always be present I was very grateful to know Lenny was on Watch!! He will be missed!!
