Ginny: I was so sorry to learn of Leon's passing. Everytime that I drive on Union Street - I think of you both! Remember the Lincoln Town Car? Leon was the only one to offer his understanding and "hope to me" that it would turn out OK! Now, I can smile, but not then. My sincere thoughts are with you and your family - Rosalie Hanson

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Leon. Jim worked with him many years at Merchants National Bank, and I worked at Merchants Savings Bank during the period of time that both banks shared a common lobby in Hampshire Plaza so I knew him as well. He was a great guy and we will fondly remember "the good old days".
