Not sure what to say?

I was deeply saddened to hear of Leon's passing. I am so very sorry for you loss.

Having worked with Leon for many years I will miss him. peter brown

Our thoughts of deepest sympathy are with you and your family during this time of loss. I met Leon when I began working at the UM athletic department in 1983. He was a wonderful person.

Phyllis, I am sorry for your loss. I will be praying for you and your family.

Phyllis and Family, so sorry to hear of Leon's passing, He was a very caring person and always had a kind word & smile for everyone. He will be sadly missed at the sportsman's club. Ken, Carol and Mackenzie.

Dear Phyllis and family,
My deepest sympathy to all of you. Wish I could be there with you. I know how your heart hurts. I remember years ago when Leon accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

Your love goes on. Leon is loving you from Heaven and praying for you. One day we will all join...
