<DIV>Condolences to our friend, Lenny Azzarone,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sadly and proudly, I have provided the obituary of Leonard Azzarone,
long
time member with the Northeast Chapter and founder and program director of
the
National Federation of the Blind of New Jersey’s internet radio show,
ThruOurEyes from 2005 to 2014.</DIV>
<DIV>If memory serves me right, Lenny and his wife, Debbie, met members from
the
chapter at a street fair in Fair Lawn. Both were impressed with the
goals,
purposes and objectives of the chapter and the NFBNJ, Lenny offered to
volunteer
to establish the internet radio show. I was fortunate to be drafted as
the
host of ThruOurEyes. Shortly, Jane Degenshein, Trisha Ebel, Jerry
Moreno,hosted Always Look On The Brightside of Life, Linda Zani Thomas
and
Johanna Baccun,hosted Looking Good Without Looking. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The numerous hours preparing, directing, providing the edits, and
posting
kept Lenny extremely busy. I want to thank Debbie for her
understanding
that for every Wednesday night and others, Lenny belonged to the Federation.
</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lenny, thanks for all you have done for so many.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Rest in Peace!</DIV>
<DIV>With Much Respect,</DIV>
<DIV>Joe Ruffalo, President </DIV>
<DIV>National Federation of the Blind of New Jersey </DIV>
