Leon,
You have been in my life for 30 years and we have had a lot of great memories and our fights too. I will miss "Mr. Grumpy" alot. Ryan and JJ are already lost with out you. JJ says he will help Mom clean just like you taught him too. Ryan says he will drive the camper (hopefully not into my car again) so he and Mom can still go camping.
You have made my small family into a large family, and I hope it will stay that way. Please give Nan and Kaylee a big kiss for me. I Love you.

Love,
Jen

PS No fighting with Nan and STAY OFF THE GRASS!!!!!
