My sincere and deepest condolences to the family. We were stationed together at Dental Research in Great Lakes IL. I was a dental technician. He trained me on the electron microscope. And subsequently, he was an extremely positive influence in my being selected for Medical Service Corps and a blessed and long Navy career. I have always had the utmost respect for Dr Leonard. We often kept in touch-over many of the last 40 years. He will be missed in so many different ways. He was the Best of...

Edward was my cousin. For several years before Lola passed he came to Greenfield and I was pleased he always looked me up. His mom and dad were my godparents. My dad Earl Coutu was his mom Hilda´s brother. Edward was so great about keeping me in touch with family history. So sorry to hear of his passing. He was so nice to me. Love you Edward.

I taught with Dr. Leonard at Hargrave Military Academy. He was an absolute gem of a human being ... intelligent, humble, funny. Condolences to the family. I´m glad to have known him.

I wonder how JFK knew that "Eddy", as we called him in school, was a student at Georgetown? JFK liked Greenfield people. JFK always took care of his people in Massachusetts. I went all through school with Eddy in Greenfield and we were married in the same church on the same day. He and Lola at 10 am, and me and Jim Hancock at 11am. He went to school early, 8am, to take Latin III. Alone. Just him and the teacher Ellen Pierce. The Latin must have done something good for him.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. He will certainly be missed. He always came to see us whenever he came to Massachusetts and we would reminisce about family members no longer with us. Family was most important to him and he always went to the cemetery and pay respect to his loved ones there! His faith was very important to him and we are having a mass said for him in our church. Our love, thoughts and...
