We are so sorry to hear of Leo's passing. Though we haven't been good at keeping in touch, we lived many years in the little house on Ross Durkee Road and spent many hours with Leo in his house and ours. We were regaled with his many stories and keen observers of his tinkering and carpentry skills. Our condolences to the Gilson family. We'll always remember our friend Leo.
