Lenny has I think two or three uncles from his fathers side. There’s actually an article about one of them named Dennis who I believe is a lawyer. I assume at the very least that at least one of them had a child who also had a child so the Persin name will live on.
For awhile I thought that basically everyone in the Persin bloodline was some type of freak or disappointment for Leonard Sr. His own father’s suicide, Lenny’s ditching football and subsequent life, piano and skin flute playing EJ, a highly disabled and aggressive to the point of state enforced medication daughter. After seeing that article and remembering some stories he told about his extended family I realized something. Turns out its not the whole Persin bloodline that’s fucked up, just the ones sired by Leonard Sr.
