When I went to the Advanced Umpire Camp in Springfield, MO in September 2008 to improve my skills, etc. (hey, it had been 20 years since umpire school!), Len was there and saw me work. He was very complimentary and praiseworthy. I won't forget that.
As I commented to his wife Theresa in an Email last week, there's a great line in the classic movie The Wizard of OZ where the Wizard tells the Tin Man when "giving him" his heart, "And remember, my metal friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love others, but by how much you are loved BY others."
In that case, Lenny's heart, which ironically was the cause of his passing, was judged very well, its value priceless.
