Hey Mark, I'm sorry for your loss and your children's loss. They will have memories of him which will keep him alive long after you and I pass. I still saw him frequently at the Aquatic Center after I quit bowling and it was nice to keep in touch. He will be missed.

Leo was my Uncle and was loved alot even though it has been a long time since I have seen him. I would always look forward to his Christmas cards, he never forgot. I used to spend time at His and Donna Jean's in the summer when I was young, they were always a lot of fun. My heart goes out to Mark and Aimee and the kids, they were Leo's life as was Jean. My Love to all. Paula

Dear Family & Friends,

I've lived next door to Leo for 10 years. We've talked many of times about sports, hobbies and life in general. He always had something nice to say about everyone and everything. Leo was very kind to my dogs and gave them treats every day from his side of the fence. I will miss him dearly.

To the family & friends of Leo,

I have only lived next door to Leo for a little over a year. Although there were few conversations, each one brought a smile to my face. He was such a sweet man and will sadly be missed.
