Not sure what to say?

Gerry, Ada, Linda, Susie and all the family of Leo. I am saddened to hear of your husband, father, grand and great grandfather's passing. How many memories I have of Ada in my wedding, your Dad making us so many good treats to eat as a picnic by the river. My memories are sweet of all the kids when they were very young--of going down to the farm and just hanging out. So many good memories. Prayers and condolences to all. I am honored to have known your family.

Leo was a wonderful man, enjoyed all the years we all bowled together. Leo helped my family 25 years ago in a difficult situation. much love and sympathy to the whole family may God keep watch over the family.

Linda, your Dear Mother and Family, I offer my deepest condolences at your loss. May he rest in Peace

Going to miss Leo at bowling. He was a great guy and will be missed.

WHAT A LIFE! Uncle Leo and his sweet wife Gerry, six devoted daughters and two sons are in our hearts & prayers. Leo lived life to its fullest and leaves a wealth of memories which many of us share.

I remember carrying cinder- blocks up the plank as Leo & others built their new house near the old farmhouse. The 40s were also when...

Leo was a wonderful person. I used to love bowling with him at ABC Lanes. God bless you and your family Leo.

Leo may not have been the best bowler to ever grace a lane but there never was a finer, more fun individual to endure the alleys with or against than this wonderful genteel man... (even when his Leo's Crew team was giving yours a good pasting)... When the Monday Night Boosters season opened this year, we absorbed a few teams from Red Crown that gave the league new life, but for seasoned Booster leaguers there was something amiss ... there was no Leo. Us "younger" guys may have felt stiff at...

Dear Aunt Gerry and family, our prayers and thoughts are for you at this sad time. Uncle Leo will always have a special place in our hearts. Sending much love until we can be with you in person.
