I worked with Leon first when I was with the Homeless Program at the VA and after he came to the VA. Leon was supportive our homeless veterans, he cared about them. He will be missed. My sympathies to his family. Carol O´Brien

So very sorry for your loss. Leon was a great guy. He was my practicum supervisor many years ago at Nova. Then Jim and I knew him again through Lefty´s. Please accept our sincere condolences.
