Leon made my time with the choir an experience of JOY and musical worship. He spent more hours than all of us practicing and tutoring our lectors - doing special rehearsals for our soloists and those who presented for our Holy Week and Christmas celebrations- having to drive home and return the next morning - beyond dedicated he was a constant inspiration..... have missed him since his retirement - but know he has found his place among the angel Chorus !

Joining the St.Lukes Choir 22yrs Ago Directed by Mr John Hanulick and Leon Bernard was one of the Best Decisions I ever made accepting the Invitation to join The Famous Phrase was "You don't have to know or Read Music Just come To Rehearsal" A came to Rehearsal and the Rest is History,We Bonded,Became Friends Until he Retired.I am delighted to know he will be doing the same for The Heavenly Choir of Angels. Sleep in Peace My Dear Friend.Until we Meet Again.

To My Dearest Leon,I joined the St.Lukes Choir 22yrs Ago,Directed by Mr. John Hanulick,Not knowing a Note of Music I accepted the Invitation to join the Choir Entertained by the Sweet Notes that was Produced by Leon on The Organ, I couldn't resist,At that Time I knew I needed to join the Choir of Angels,That lasted over the Years and Bonded us Both As Friends. I will Truly Miss Him,But knowing he will be Playing for the Heavenly Angels at His Newest Residence. Sleep in Peace My Dear Friend.
