We have all lost a truly genuine and good hearted man. Leon was the type of person that would give the shirt off his back to help someone in need. He will be dearly missed by all those who had the good fortune of knowing him. Rest in peace old friend. C. Brown

When we lose a loved one in death, ones heart certainly becomes crushed and strength within is low but know that our Heavenly Father is with such ones for (Isaiah 57:15) states:"In the height and in the holy place is where I reside, also with the one crushed and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly ones and to revive the heart of the ones being crushed."
