houseMost New Yorkers are pretty used to tales of landlords evicting tenants in the pursuit of profit maximization. But even the most hardened free-marketeer must have raised his eyebrows at yesterday’s report of two elederly sisters being kicked out of the Cobble Hill townhouse where they grew up by their nephew, Joseph DeLeonibus. Adding another layer of intrigue was the listing for the Cheever Place property on Corcoran: “House is being offered for $999,999, without seeing it, without inspecting it, must close in 30 days, must be all cash and must take tenants in place.” Sounds a little desperate to us. There must be more to the story.

  1. Now that what has happened to my husband is yesterday’s news, I’ve got something to say. To all the asses who made all the cold hearted remarks, get a life. People like you live off others heartache. You people have nothing to do? To all the family members who grew up with my husband and know what kind of person he really is screw all of you. It was all onesided. All you saw were two elders. These elders had their own family to take care of them. I don’t mean Lenny and Patty, the only thing they took care of was Aunt Jeans SS check. Cookie and Frankie wanted nothing to do with their mother. My husband got stuck with her. All they wanted was what she had in the bank. They both have houses with extra rooms. Is that why you put her in a nursing home. It just looked like Lenny was taking care of his mother. It was a roof over his head. He used to live in Prospect Park in the summer and on the trains in the winter. Who had it better then him. My husband put a roof over his head and he used his mothers money and Annie’s furniture. There is a God. I hope all of you get yours. I would never wish anyone harm in the past. Now I only wish you suffer as you made my husband suffer.

  2. Linda Annie was not the kind hearted person you might of thought she was. She said very cruel things about everything and every one. She talked behind everybody’s back including you. I’m sure she said plenty about me. When all this happened with my husband, Katy told me Annie called me the bitch and it was because of me Joseph was doing this. Joe’s grandmother’s silver set, it should of been passed on to me and then my children. True? She gave it to KathyAnn. And Cookie made us know it. There are so many things I can say, but what’s the use.Enough is enough. My only concern is to get back my husbands good mental health. He will never be the same. When he had the breakdown, it was a terrable time for my family. Look a lot of things were said. Most of them in anger. I hope Mandi can realize it wasn’t what we wanted. All of you have a good life. Goodby. Grace.
