Gloria Black wrote a sympathy message

“Lenny was an extremely rare man, beloved by all, and his personality lit up the room. He was full of love and laughter and exuded great warmth to anyone lucky enough to know him, never boastful of his great success! Listening to the Rabbi and his beloved sons Jeffrey and Bruce spoke volumes; and his wonderful daughter Susan cared for him amazingly well in his later years; his love and light will shine over many generations. With fondest love, Marlene Perry and Gloria Black 🙏❤️🙏”
