Not sure what to say?

I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Joe Leonzi. He was a man of great determination and hard work. I admired and respected for him very much. Perhaps no one else could have turned the football program at Hamburg Area around as he did. May you rest in peace Joe, you have certainly earned it. God bless you.

My deepest sympathy for the Leonzi family! Joe was one of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure knowing. My prayers are with you all. He will be missed.

To the Leonzi family . My sincerest condolences to all as a great and kind man has entered into his eternal reward. Our friendship goes back over 48 years when I was in high school. He was just so kind and offered encouragement at every opportunity . Just saw him awhile ago and he talked about golf and asked about my family. Sorry I missed viewing and services. Will miss hitting a few with him at the mountain. May he Rest in peace with God.

Dear Madeline and Family, Please accept my deepest sympathy at this time. Joe was a great guy and will always be remembered for his kindness and wit. May he Rest In Peace!

I was so saddened by the news of Joe. He was a good teacher and a better person to have worked with, he will be missed very much!

Joe was a dear friend and colleague at Hamburg. He could brighten up any day with his enthusiasm about life. He loved his family and most things about the education world. If there were items he didn't like, he would tell you. That was a big part of his being a great man. I was always proud to be his friend, and I enjoyed all the informative chats we had over the years. May you rest in peace, Joe.

I was very saddened to hear about Joe's passing. I worked with Joe for many years at Hamburg High School. I can remember how pleased he was to bring the faculty his chocolate cherries treats at Christmas time. That brings a smile to my face. May the many memories that you have gathered over the years bring you peace & comfort.
