Dean King gave me my first shot a real responsibility by appointing me to a few committees while at Univ. Lowell in 1980. I will never forget the lessons learned under his direction. I loved this man. Much of what I am today is due to his inspiration.

Thank YOU Dean King for all the help and inspiration you provided to me during my years at U Lowell. In 1981 when no one would give me the time of day, you did! I asked your secretary for 5-minutes with you to explain a problem and you gave me an hour! You extended a helping hand and you held me accountable... I thank God for you! You made an impact on my life and that impact is still reaching out today. As I did loss touch with you and many others from U Lowell since then, I just want you...

My sympathies go out to Dean King's family during this very sad time. During my time at UMass Lowell, he helped me personally on many levels as I know he did for many of the students. All he asked for in return was that we apply those lessons learned in our future endeavors and treat others the way he treated us, which was with respect and compassion. Although I thanked him numerous times for his guidance and help, it was never enough. He will be missed by many, but his impact on my life and...

I was saddened to learn of the passing of Dean Leo King. He was such a great man for ULowell who was an inspiration and guiding force for those students who worked for him and the University at large.
He taught me some very valuable lessons about leadership with compassion, and how to get the job done. His infectious good nature and humor was unique among administrators and made him approachable and memorable.
He will be missed and my condolences to his family & friends.

Dean King was a friend and helped guide me through college during a chaotic time of my life. I would'nt have graduated if it wasn't for his help and advice. I kept in touch with him over the years and visited his house in Lowell when I was in town and we shared a scotch. He also visited my house and met a number of my family who shared my admiration of him. I will miss him and want to pass on my condolences to his family....."
