A sweet visit! Remembering them as joyful and kind people!

We had the pleasure of meeting Leo and Jan at St. Matthew Church in Waxhaw, NC after they relocated from Bradenton, Florida.

Leo helped my daughter get started in her glass hobby and supplied her with a lot of glass and advice which was so helpful. R. I. P. my friend You always be remembered. Jim Rose

My father worked with Leo for many years. My condolences
