so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was a friend of my Dad's (Bill Jones). I can remember coming over to their house when we were small and how big the kitchen table was. Things look so much bigger when your young. Enjoy the memories that you share.

It is always sad to see that another former Beacon Journal employee has passed away. Our condolences to the family.

I worked in the newsroom while Leo was in Composing.

News of his passing has been posted on the BJ Alums blog for Beacon Journal retirees.
