We were very saddened to hear of Leo's passing, but grateful he isn't suffering. His was a life well-lived and enjoyed. We met him in the Polar Bear Grand Tour, and were amazed that he was still riding... if we remember correctly, he got a 3-wheeled bike at age 93. Recycled Teenager Not too shabby! He was a special guy, with lots of spunk ~ which carried him through 101 years of a full life. We'll miss him.
Our deepest condolences to his family and friends. May fond memories of the times you had together bring smiles and laughter as you celebrate his GREAT life!
