My condolences to you Jonah and Cassandra. I am so sorry to hear about your father passing away. Mr Stan was my teacher at Patton Springs High School and I must say my favorite teacher. He was our senior year home teacher. I can still remember him always outside chopping wood or exercising, usually running and jogging. My most cherished moments was when he would take me and Jonah to the springs in Roaring Springs. I felt like he took me under his wings as I came from a broken home. I will issue him bim his memory will live on.

Dear Jonah and Cassandra, I was extremely saddened by the news that your dad had died. I cherish his friendship. It was special. He was a complexity like no other--scholar, veteran, athlete, political activist, tireless traveler, artist, and father. I think this may have been his best trait of many. I was especially proud of his drive to attend classes seemingly until he died. His painting is a wonder and I look at my favorite of them each time I go out the back door. We agreed on most points of history and literature and politics but debated a few points endlessly. He taught me much more than I could ever contribute to our discussions. I hope he knew how much I cared for him. Love, Tom Dodge

in honor of Leonard.

I will always cherish the memories I have of Uncle Lenny. Energetic and athletic.. always on the go and so full of life. A man who never seemed to age.. and who could make one mean plate of scrambled eggs! Farewell Uncle. With a spirit as big and bright as yours, I know you will never be far...

Lenny, colorful and assertive, embraced life with much enthusiasm. He approached everything he did -- exercising, home-improvement projects, teaching, art, partying -- with much gusto! He liked excitement and could create quite a bit himself! He loved deeply and was very proud of his two children, Jonah and Cassandra. He enjoyed visiting with Cassandra, and with Jonah and his wife Aurora, and sons Jeremy and Xavier. He enjoyed gatherings; with vivid speech and dramatic gestures, he was a lively addition to any occasion.
