Lenny Staller
Shortly after graduating from Whitewater High School in 1958, a young Lenny Staller was taught a lesson he never expected to learn as a trade school student in Fort Atkinson.
He learned he was wasting his time.
âMy father taught me more,â Staller said.
In a small garage on his familyâs farm, Stallerâproprietor of Lennyâs Canesâstudied at the hip of his father, who also made cabinets on the side. The Stallers became well known in the Fort Atkinson area for their woodworking skills, and young Lennyâs time with his fatherâalong with knowledge gained from a high school industrial arts classâset him on a course toward his own career.
