It was always a warm, loving moment when I'd see Mr. Leeds escorting Helen at the Lake Forest fitness center. My condolences to my old friend Judy, her Mom and the extended Leeds family.

Milt and Helen have always been so hospitable to our Mother...Lil Horwich. Milt will be truly missed, and he was such a bright light to so many, and Ravinia has lost one of its most loyal fans! Our sincere condolences to the family.

Milt's devotion to Helen was beautiful and epic. Milt was a great neighbor to Sarah Kahn and visited her with Helen as often as weather and their respective health challenges would permit. Milt proved that those tasked the most can yet be the most generous in spirit.
