Not sure what to say?

I worked with Captain Gunnels at 39’s back in the day. I appreciated his leadership, kindness, and direction he gave his fellow firefighters.
You will never be forgotten Captain!

There is so much to be said for the phrase: GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN!!
Love you my brother!!!
Will see you soon!!!
You and Linda have always been family !
Respectfully,

I'm going to miss so many things about you, handsome man. I'll miss your delicious tomato gravy, your sweet hugs and kisses on the cheek, your never failing reminders to watch out for the deer and to slow down driving through Riverside, but most of all I'm going to miss seeing you love on and play with my kiddos. They loved you so much, Uncle Leo- I hope you knew that. I'm so thankful that they got the chance to meet, love, and admire one of my greatest heroes- you.

This isn't...

Mr Leo was and will always be a wonderful man I enjoy serving him and his family for 14 years at trinity cafe he will truly be missed his joyful spirit

we grew up together and I thought of him like a brother. I went to school with Linda and Leo, and I love them both very much. My deepest sympathy to the family.
