Not sure what to say?

I´m sorry to have missed this. Leo was as nice bc a person as you could possibly know.

Dear Judy, It´s the anniversary of Leo´s passing and I just want you know I miss him every day. Last year we lost all three of these great people. I also wanted you to know I have a special place in my heart reserved for Leo as I´m sure many others do as well. Love, Wendy

Uncle Leo, what can I say except the truth. You were a loving, kind, supportive and genuine person. I always loved yours and Aunt Judy's company. I looked forward to the thought of a family get together either at your house or mine. The dish that you would bring to my home was overly generous and loved by all. I can remember times when you had a family get together at your home and you and Aunt Judy would cook one of the finest meals I have had in a very long time. Whenever I needed to talk...

Leo was my mentor boss at Marshall Field´s in the late 80´s. He was responsible for me to come to Water Tower from State Street to take over the food division. He was a great man. Such a big heart and a kind gentle heart. My condolences to the family. I would love to attend the memorial in the summer. Thank you, Patrick Doyle

So he rolled up his sleeves and tucked his tie away and joined us at the table to plate up the food. We were working with my friend and mentor Chef Bruce (Executive Chef for De Paul University Lincoln Park campus) and others. Bruce and I knew each other well as we have worked together before with different companies. ...

Hello: I did business with Leo for many years when he worked for Marshall Fields. I was always impressed with his professionalism and the fine detail that Fields paid to their food quality and presentation. My sincere condolences. Irv Flangel

Uncle Leo was such a nice man. He and Aunt Judy would always put flowers on my Grandma's grave. He always asked about my Mom and Dad as well. He was a very caring person and will be missed greatly. Aunt Judy, I will keep you both in my prayers.

What a wonderful man! He will be missed. Condolences to the family. Love and hugs, Judy and David.
