Dear Barb and Herman,
You must be feeling as though there is a great big hole in your hearts because Uncle Leo has gone to join the folks in Heaven As written in the card that was sent, he will always be close by you. Be open to little messages he may send you in one way or another. It will probably be something humorous because that is the kind of person he was. He saw the funny side of things; but it was always a gentle humor.
All of us will miss him, too; but we have many happy memories.
