Leon's warm presence has been missed for quite some time now. We are so blessed to have known your Daddy and shared in loving fellowship together. Being witness to his gentle spirit, selflessness, love of Jesus and Stanka and family, and his joy in service to the Lord have inspired Bryan and I immensely. May God bless you and keep you in His care.

Love, Bryan and Sally Gullett
