I read the news -with a shock - I had not been aware of Leo`s ilnessI . I was a student in Syracuse 84 and join those whose creativity was awakened by him. What a magnificent person.
I presently work as art therapist of people with special needs and got recently a book published of my students work -with Leo`s assurence. I was now looking for the address to send him the book...Liisa Krohn-Madanat,Helsinki, Finland ([email protected])

Leo changed the course of my life forever by teaching me how to be a teacher and how to make teaching a creative endeavor. He was a person who truly loved to teach, share and make the world a better place. Leo, my dear friend and mentor, I will miss you terribly and will carry your example with me always. You have changed the lives of so many young people.

My deepest sympathy to Leo's family.
I'll always remember my visits to Utica and spending time with my cousins.
Leo and I were born in the same year, only a few months apart. My older son and he share the same birth date.
Leo will always have a special place in my heart.
Rest in peace, my dear cousin.

A wonderful teacher, man, and friend. He is indelibly imprinted in my soul. Godspeed, Leo.

Oh, my friend. I am so lucky to have met you, enjoyed your wisdom, love and excellent cooking, your sincere smile and your amazing heart. I miss you.
