Heaven is richer though we are poorer with Leo's home-going; no one was more respected or valued as a friend. Our love and prayers are with you.

Dearest Irene and Girls,
Reg and I were sorry to hear of the passing of your dear husband and father recently. Yet we had mixed emotions, because we are truly happy for Leo, as he is finally "home" and will see each of you soon. He was a fine man and we will all miss him. God bless each of you and keep you in His care.
Lovingly, Diana and Reg Ferree

Sorry to hear of Leo's home going but know his successful journey is complete. I always enjoyed my time shared with Leo, especially on the golf course. May God richly bless the family during these home going time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
I just met Leo this spring when I joined the Fundamental Baptist Golf League. Leo made me feel right at home and was a joy being around. It was obvious from being around him that he enjoyed life, his family, and he loved the Lord. I will miss Leo but I take solice in knowing he is with his Lord and Savior and I will see him again one day. God Bless.
