Mrs. Lenny was an avid reader and bird-watcher. She enjoyed traveling, gardening and attending antique auctions. She was a former Trustee for the Tri-Township Library District and was a proud member of the Troy Women’s Club. She was always willing to lend a hand to helping her grandkids and their friends - most definitely with a smile – and also volunteered for many local community groups. She will be remembered for the love she shared as a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and for the generosity she shared with so many friends and neighbors.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Paul Lenny, whom she married on January 16, 1947 in Collinsville, Ill; her parents, Raymond George Doussard and Vashti Lena Whitsell Doussard, and a brother, Robert Doussard.
Surviving is her daughter, Lois (Bill) Adomite of Troy, Ill., a brother, Jack (Sandra) Doussard of Warrensburg, Mo.; a brother-in-law, James Lenny of Redington Shores, Fla.; two grandchildren, Allen (Susan) Adomite of Troy, Ill., and Pam (Gordon) Hulten of Champaign, Ill.; and three great-grandchildren, William Hulten, Allison Adomite and Catherine Hulten.
