He relocated from Marion to Indianapolis, Indiana in 1972. Lenwood was a "life simple pleasures" man. Always willing to help family and friends or anyone who needed advice or direction. Taking pride in his yard and barbecuing those tender/tasty ribs that he would treat to family and friends. He was an avid sports lover and played tennis on a regular basis. He loved watching professional tennis matches whenever they aired. Sometimes traveling to watch the "grand slam" sisters, Venus and Serena Williams compete. Loved his jazz music. Many evenings you would find Lenwood in his basement trying to emulate his favorite jazz artist on his keyboard and saxophone. He will be extremely missed. Lenwood was preceded in death by his parents, his brothers, Everett Odell Embry and James Embry, and one sister, Lucille Embry. He is survived by his wife, Iris Joann Embry, and two sons, Marc Embry and Ryan Embry, his sisters Shirley Levi and Pansy Bailey (Edward).
