Christmas will be a bit less merry without Leo. Gone, never forgotten, always loved and always in our hearts

God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Leo was our very dear friend. He will be missed by all who knew him. Leo had the best attitude and the best laugh. We loved spending time with him. The three of us planned to go on an Alaskan cruise next year. We will always remember him with love.

A great man has passed from this earthly life. He was the most kind, generous, thoughtful man I have ever known. One of his most valuable attributes was his non -judge mental way of looking at all human beings. He based everyone on their own merits and loved fiercely and purely. I will mourn the loss of Leo for all my remaining days. Until we meet again, May you be at peace and know how much you were loved, treasured and valued.

For 47 years I knew you as Papa Leo. I loved spending time with you getting advise, having your favorite breakfast tacos or just visiting over a bowl of pintos. This world won´t be the same without you.
