Spring is here, the ran keeps falling and falling....i know you would be working over time due to storm work. So many memories, just saw the boat we rode the time we spent in Pittsburgh, so hot that day we both got sun burn. And dont forget that pizza, it ripped us both up...we laughed about that so many times. We were going to return to the city and do it all again someday. Miss you so much!! Love you Len!!

Leonard was a great friend that I grew up with in Spring City. We played softball every Sunday during the summer and hung out in our cars. I am very saddened to hear this news. I will always cherish the great times we had. My condolences to the Gauger family. Leonard will be sorely missed.
