No one wanted to say goodbye to Leni Gonzalez after her years of leadership improving the quality of life for Latinos and immigrant families in Arlington. So Tuesday, Aug. 15, a “Celebrating Friendship” dinner was held at the Salsa Room on Columbia Pike to express the appreciation and gratitude of the people she has touched over the years. Gonzalez is moving to El Salvador in a couple of weeks to join her husband who has emerged from retirement to begin a new career there. Above are Walter Tejada, former County Board chair who worked with Gonzalez on many projects over the years (left), Leni Gonzalez and Andres Tobar, executive director of Shirlington Employment and Education Center (SEEC) of which Gonzalez was recent chair of the board.
