Dear susn and family

Although I never met you I was a life long friend and high school classmate of Leon and he came to our reunions and I visited him twice once when we came in for a Mike Ditka Bears game and also on a vacation and went to your home and he took us to Al Capone's favorite restaurant. He was here for our 65th reunion in 2008. My deepest sympathies for your loss and also for us that knew him for so long a period
