Not sure what to say?

Leon, RIP. Always trusteed and relied on his competent appraisal reports. Sorry to all friends and family for your loss.

His wisdom and advice will be so missed. JR & Lo

Leon was an asset to our real estate community for all the many decades I knew him. Sorry for your loss. John King Real Estate Broker

So sorry to hear about Leon! I've known him since he and Marie moved to St. Helena and Daniel was a baby (who Marie carried with her to Open Houses!!). they were both charming and kind and I worked with them for close to 30 years! Deepest Condolences to the family!

I knew Leon very peripherally, and that was many years ago. That's why I probably didn't know all the accomplishments that were listed in his obituary. All I would like to say is that it sounds as though Leon had a life well lived and I'm certain he will be missed.

I first met Leon at St. Helena Rotary in 1986. I was working for KVON/KVYN at the time and we struck up a friendship. I would later become a mortgage broker and because of Leon's real estate business, we had even more in common. At one point, he was looking to establish a home appraisal business and back at that time, mortgage brokers could pick who they worked with. It was a no-brainer for me to start working with Leon. I knew him to be a man of integrity and also give me the bad news...

I share good memories and miss my friend and next door neighbor for over 50 years. I offer my condolences to all who also knew and will miss him.
