Leonard will be remembered as a humble and charitable man who always put the needs of those in his family first. His positive outlook and a supportive demeanor, a constant for his loved ones and all those he touched. Slow to anger and gentle in speech, he provided stability and assurance during times of family crisis, making sacrifice to ensure the well-being of those he cared for. His wisdom, guidance, gentleness and compassion will surely be missed by all those fortunate enough to have known him.
'Till we meet again, may god bless his soul and diminish the pain of those he has left behind, for the world is a lesser place without him and an emptiness will always reside in our hearts with his loss.

I would like to express our sincere condolences to the family of Leonard .
who ever wrote the obituary really knew Leonard well , it describes him well.
He was a Great gentle giant, always watching over his family as a large sentinel, he really loved and cared for his family
Leonard was always friendly soft spoken, always a pleasure to spend time with, He will be greatly missed .
Hopefully his grandchildren will learn from how he was, and pass that trait on to the next generation of children.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Leonard was always a happy generous man when I was growing up with Angie. He was so nice and very kind. I will never forget the good times I spent at his house or on his boat. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
