I worked with Leo at Amstek and enjoyed his company from day one. It seemed that when I had to stop by his office, he always had a new thing he was thinking of or was implementing. The wheels were always turning with him. His creativity inspired me to think out of the box, and I owe part of my successes in my career to Leo. Thank you friend.

He always had a great story about his passion for canoes and the trips he would take. He really enjoyed those trips.

My sympathies to the family, his friends and co-workers. The world will miss you Leo.
