Leonard “Lenny” Daddurno, age 37 of Elmwood Park, died suddenly and unexpectedly on Tuesday, December 11, 2012. Lenny was a part-owner of American Air; an air conditioning and heating contractor based in Elmwood Park.
Lenny moved to Wayne with his family when he was two years old. He was an unbelievable athlete and loved all sports, especially football and baseball. He played PAL for many years and his dad coached him along the way. At Wayne Hills High School, he continued to play baseball, football, and wrestle. To this day, he holds two Wayne Hills wrestling team records for ‘Fastest Pin’ at twelve seconds, and “Most Pins”. He graduated in 1993 and went on to Lincoln Tech where he earned his certification for Air Conditioning and Heating.
Lenny had begun his HVAC career with a local firm that ended up going out of business. Lenny and one of his coworkers then decided to venture out and start their own company; American Air. Since then, they have served hundreds of families throughout north Jersey and Lenny enjoyed making many friends along the way. Just a few weeks ago, his grandparents air conditioning system needed replacing in Boca Raton, and Lenny flew to Florida and took care of the whole job for them. He was always very close with his grandparents and there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t have done for them. Visiting them in Boca was always his favorite place to vacation.
Lenny’s life truly revolved around sports. To say he was a fanatic is an understatement. The NY Giants and Yankees are, by far, his favorite teams. He knew every statistic that was worth remembering, and then some more. He knew where every player got their start, where they went to college, high school, what their record was, etc. He was just full of sports knowledge. Sunday was his day and he wouldn’t allow distractions during the games. He would typically watch the Giants by himself – so no one could talk over the game or otherwise distract him. His sister Dana recently had a baby and he warned her during the pregnancy, “You better not have the baby on a Sunday!” Lenny also followed his brother Ryan’s athletics. He helped to coach Ryan through PAL and high school and never missed one of his brother’s games when he played for Wayne Hills. Lenny was Ryan’s biggest fan and biggest critic.
Lenny was very excited about his sister Dana having her baby recently. Isabel was born just a few weeks ago and Lenny couldn’t have been happier. As fortune would have it, Isabel wasn’t born on a Sunday and Lenny was grateful that he didn’t have to miss a game! Lenny was going to be named as Isabel’s Godfather in the coming weeks but now he’ll standby as her guardian angel.
Lenny is survived by his loving parents; Lenny and Denise Daddurno of Wayne, his sister Dana Rosario and her husband Danny and their daughter Isabel of Budd Lake, his brother Ryan of Wayne, his grandparents; Salvatore and Dorothy Daddurno of Boca Raton, FL, his uncle Vito Rocco Daddurno and his wife Pat of Boynton Beach, FL, his aunt Lillian Sciletti of Lyndhurst, his uncle Daniel Ehrgott and his wife Joanne of Manahawkin, NJ, and his close friend; John Magna of Hawthorne.
