Not sure what to say?

Leo was a kind, generous, wonderful man. He was a friend to the Herschel Elkins family and a friend to me.

I'm writing on behalf of my dad, 90 year old Orvis "Biff" Fletcher of Clearfield, PA. Leo will be sadly missed by dad as he has great memories of childhood in Goshen and the times that he visited Leo at his home in Alaska. He has given dad many many memories and has enabled him to travel to a wonderful land that he now loves. Leo always greeted dad with open arms and made his stays there ones that he cherishes. He was a kind and happy man from what dad tells me and even up until dad heard...

I worked for Mr. Frelin at A&W in 1987. He always had the biggest smile and greeted every customer as though they were his personal friend and many of them were! Heaven has gained another star. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Uncle Leo was very special in our lives. When they came to Clearfield to visit they always stayed with us and you saw the aparkle in his eye when he talked of his family. He always showed my mom and dad such a good time when they went to Alaska that was some of their specials times.
Rest assured the banks were full of Family and friends waiting his arrival.His big smile will be missed by all that knew him. Just wanted you to know that we are thinking of you

I met Uncle Leo on my first ever trip to Alaska. I got to spend July 23rd thru 27th 2009 with him at the cabin where we fished and enjoyed his life long stories. What a gem of a man! His kindness is one of a kind. I will always remember him.
P.S. In case there was any question he does Snore!

Leo was a kind hearted man with a sparkle in his eye. What a wonderful gift to his family he must have been. Even though we did not know him very long or very well, we will treasure the stories he told us and his warm smile.

Joe and Family,

We know how much your Granddad meant to you and are very sorry to hear of his passing. We never met him, but from your comments, we know he was a really great guy. Just wanted you to know you will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Michel and Family:
Your Mom and Dad each made such positive impact on the lives of those of us who had the opportunity to meet them. I have great respect for each of them. Each was an example of integrity, caring and giving, and I am a better person because of the living testimony their lives will continue to be.
May wonderful and happy memories comfort and sustain you and your family day by day.

I am a nephew of Leo, oldest son of his sister (Edith). My thoughts and prayers are with all his family. My Mother has told me tales of his adventurous life. Wish I could have been able to spend more time around him. May GOD BLESS AND Be with the Frelin family. Bill Mclaughlin and family, Ellenton, Fl.
