Tina, Nick, Matt,
My memories of Leo are that he was always cheerful and joking.
I know Tina adored him and looked up to him (that was unavoidable!).
He was a good guy and will always be remembered that way.

I was so sorry to hear about Leo / Dad. Please accept my sympathy. I know I haven't seen you since our Kilbourn days - a long time ago, however, I do think about old friends very often.

May God Bless you all.............

My loving family...
I have known only a handful of truly good people in my life, and my brother was one. I was always so proud of him, even when I rubbed in the "little" brother part. As brothers go, I could never have asked for better.He was always quick with a kind word or a hug when I needed him most. His passing leaves a hole in my heart.
My deepest love and sympathy goes out to you all.
Pearl
