Lenny was diagnosed with cancer in January 2020. Soon after, her family, and the world, went into quarantine due to Covid-19. Even from inside the walls of her home she continued to spread magic. She donned a hot pink wig and a tye-dye sweatsuit while she called friends, zoomed with her nieces and nephews, and lounged on her chaise in the backyard while family barbecued. Lenore lost her life in July 2020. Lenore’s battle against cancer was short but she never wavered; she was brave, she was strong, she was magical.
