I would like to send my condolences to Leon's family. He will be terribly missed. He was a special person and a very good customer of mine at Jens bar and grill. He would stop in at least once a week to have lunch and he was always a pleasure to wait on. We became very good friends over the years and I'm so sad I will no longer have the pleasure of enjoying his company. May God give each of you peace in your hearts and a warm feeling every time you think of him. My deepest sympathy.
