Not sure what to say?

Norma, my thoughts are with you. You shared a full life together.
Mary Lou Gillam

Leo was an inspiration both at work and play. His contributions to the advancement of cross country skiing in this town were enormous and unheralded. He was selfless and his child-like enthusiasm was contagious. What a great guy!

Leo was a man many of us greatly admired and respected. Many heartfelt sympathies to the Hannan family for your loss.

My sympathy goes out to the Family during your time of grief. A life well lived, as Leo had will surely be missed by many. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends and know that God is near when our hearts are broken.

What a wonderful man! So full of life and he sure lived it to the fullest! Happy to have met him and his family when he married Norma. So many fun memories of holiday parties, summer bbq's, and impromptu get togethers. Will never forget the "Viking Dancers" at my 50th bday party! Leo was 78 and rocking on! Let's just say he brought the dollar bills in! You are missed Leo.

Love and sympathy to the family. Special love to Norma. It was an honor to know Leo and to call him a friend. We pray God will grant you all His peace. Love you!
