About Lenny Wilkens
Seattle Children’s hosted a dedication of the Lenny Wilkens Lobby and Recreation Center at OBCC Othello on October 15, 2022 to honor Lenny and Marilyn Wilkens, The Lenny Wilkens Foundation, family and friends for their decades of support of the patients and families at Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic. This video features highlights from that special day.
