Lenny grew up in Fargo ND where he was an active member of the community.
He owned two businesses and organized the first Fargo Pride event.
Lenny was preceded in death by his parents. He is survived by his husband Wayne Rosell, his brother Randy Tweeden and cousins Laurie Schultz and Karen Walker.
Memorials preferred to Homeward Animal Shelter in Fargo, ND.
I worked with Lenny at Northport Hornbacher’s. We would work late on the weekend together. He made me laugh with all his antics. Those were special times. I am sad we never reconnected after all these years as I just moved back. Lenny you will be missed!
Lenny was a wonderful person who made his life count. He took risks for the betterment of others. My sympathies to Wayne and his family.
I had sometime to play on the internet, while I was at work today, and thought I would look up Lenny and see how he was doing. I was hurt to see he had passed. I worked with Lenny at Hornbachers across from West Acres Mall, in the mid 1970’s while he was the Manager of the Diary Department at Hornbachers. It was so great to have Lenny on the shift, as the Evening Shift Store Manager, we all knew no one would be yelling at us that evening, and Lenny would make it fun working in the evenings, and you would feel it was great to just be feeling alive **, as Lenny would make you feel important, and special, just to work around him . I remember looking him up back when he was running for the Fargo Mayor’s Office, and to see his 2 businesses develop. Funny, I was a silent observer of Lenny all these years passed now, I had never been, back in touch with him after he left Hornbachers in the late 1970’s. Lenny always would do something to make you remember him by. Now, all these 46 years later , I now have live in Kansas City. Leeny, I feel you will always be out there, in the Stars, watching over us all.
