We are deeply saddened to hear about Lenny's passing. So many years and so many stories...My earliest memories of Lenny was seeing him in action on the line when he was executive chef at the Hilltop - I've never seen anybody run a line like him. Since my father's passing I've drawn on Lenny's great experience and knowledge and he's always been a great Route 1 neighbor. Lenny was always passionate about being involved in the community and giving back. We just celebrated 21 years together donating dinner to the Saugus Taste for Education. He led by example and will be sorely missed in the restaurant community. <br>Steven Castraberti & Family - Prince Restaurant

To the Derosa family.<br>I worked for Lenny while I was in high school and college. Now, 30 years later, i feel as close to him as I ever did. Lenny had a way of making people feeling comfortable and a viable part of "the group." Even when years may have passed between visits, when I would pop in it was like no time had passed at all. I had the highest respect and admiration for Lenny ...and always will.
