Lenny Robinson was truly God's gift to sick children. The moment you met him, you knew he was one in a million. He gave himself selflessly to the children who needed it most. We are heartbroken.
We met Lenny in the Summer of 2014, a few months after our then 5 year old son Jackson was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. Jack is a HUGE Batman fan, so his hospital room was always decked out in Batman gear. Jack's friends, family, and supporters are known as "Team Batman Jack." The staff at Sinai knew how much Jack would love meeting "The Real Batman," as Jack came to call him. They arranged a meeting with Lenny, and Jack and Batman became instant friends. About a month later, on the day of Sinai's Race For Our Kids, Jack had the honor of riding to the race area in the Batmobile with Batman. Our family also got to spend some one on one time with Batman before the race, checking out the Batmobile and getting to know Batman. It was truly one of the most exciting days of Jack's life. As a mom, I'll never forget the way Lenny reassured me that Jack would be ok riding in a convertible (without a carseat!). He made sure I was comfortable and was just so kind. He gave Jack and his sisters Batman gear that they all still wear and play with today.
Lenny made a huge and lasting impact on Jack. When they met, Jack was in the most difficult part of treatment. Life was hard for him. But Batman told Jack to fight, so that's what Jack did.
We love you, Batman. Thank you for being you. Heaven surely gained a true superhero.
Love Always,
Mary, Jamie, Jackson, Madeleine, and Finley Buck
"Team Batman Jack"
