Lenny was born in Newton, New Jersey to the late Frank and May (Staley) Ferrari. He was the owner and operator of Ferrari Trucking since 1985.
Lenny had great love for his country and his community. He was a National Guard Veteran and a member of several organizations such as a Life Member of Green Township Fire Department, Sussex County Firemen’s Association, Red Knights Chapter 13, Newton Moose Lodge, Newton VFW, Sussex County Fire Services, Associate Member of Stillwater Fire Department, New Jersey Fireman’s Home, and Yellow Frame Church.
Lenny was a man of many hobbies, he loved fishing with friends in Costa Rica, enjoyed exploring the open road on his motorcycle, hunting with the gun club, gardening, feeding the wildlife in his backyard, and was an avid NASCAR fan. Lenny’s greatest passion was for muscle cars, and he won numerous trophies in Car Shows for his Model A and ’68 GTX. His GTX was one of his most prized possessions, which was featured on the front of Good Guys magazine. It took him 10 years to refurbish, and he kept it spotless ever since.
Lenny also had a love for traveling; he had been on over 30 cruises and just recently checked Alaska off his bucket list.
