Not sure what to say?

Sincere wishes of condolences to your family. You were a strong soldier in your fight - your love of your family was ever present, especially as we talked about our sons growing up. I only knew you for a short time, but it was clear what a good person you were. All of us in the business community will miss you.

Kathryn Turner, STI

Leon, through our mutual passion in business I grew to know you and how you loved OTG; especially all the fine people there who served your customers with excellence. Your integrity in all things business is unsurpassed and will be missed dearly.

God gave you to us, and now he takes you away - way too early.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. Leon was truly a good Brother. I will always remember his prepetual smile and positive personality.

There is a sacredness in tears . . .
they are messengers of overwhelming grief, and unspeakable love." Irving Washington

To the family of Leon Burns, just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this very very difficult time. I was Leon's first employee at OTG.

Be comforted in knowing that God is with you during this difficult time and
that there are friends that also share your sorrow with you. I find Psalm
121 to be very comforting during these times.

I'm going to miss you Brother,....., so happy to have had you in my life. FEM

Bubby, you were not just my brother, but you were my best friend. There will always be a special place in my heart where you will continue to live. As kids we always looked out for one another and that became the norm as we grew into adults. God gave us a fantastic gift the day you were born. Love you always Maxine
