Leonard “Lenny” Brunswick

Leonard “Lenny” Brunswick, age 66, died Friday, February 19, 2021 at the Kaplan Hospice Home from melanoma. Lenny is the dear son of Arlyne Brunswick and the late Sumner Brunswick. He is survived by his sisters Sharon Logan and her husband Rich, of Acton, MA, and Wendy Shulman and her husband Bill, of Needham, MA. He also leaves his nieces Stephanie, Susannah, Sophie, and nephew Simon.

Lenny, born with developmental disabilities and challenged by low vision, was a computer “geek”. He overcame so many obstacles as he rose to a job of responsibility as a computer “tech” with the U.S. Bankruptcy court in Boston where he proudly served for more than 13 years. Respected by his co-workers, Lenny retired after a severe stroke more than a decade ago left him partially paralyzed. Following months of rehabilitation, Lenny was able to gain back his independence moving to an apartment in Brookline where he enjoyed spending time on his computers, listening to music, exercising and going out for meals in the neighborhood with family.

Fiercely independent, proud and self-assured, Lenny spoke his mind freely to anyone and everyone.

His best times were in the summer, enjoying boating as a child and in later years spending summers with his family in Moultonborough, NH, where he would enjoy long drives through the area with one of the family dogs snuggled beside him.

One-of-a-kind personality, Lenny will be missed.

The funeral and Shiva will be private.

Donations in his memory may be made to the MSPCA.
