Not sure what to say?

Every time we would walk down Montclair Pkwy by his home, we would always get a big wave from our friend Leon, from his favorite chair out in front of his home.

We always remember his friendly smile and kind words. Donna, you have so many memories of your good times here in Glen Eagle, and your trips to Colorado.

We enjoyed getting to know you both when you were our neighbors on Harwich Court.

I only knew of Leon Farnham through his son Ron. As he spoke of his father, it was clear that this was an amazing man and father. My thoughts and prayers are with the Farnham family and my hope is that the wonderful memories continue to pay tribute to Leon's legacy.

I will miss seeing my neighbor occupying his chair in the afternoon sunshine in Montclair Park. He always had a big wave for me. Cheryl and I extend our deepest sympathies. May he rest in peace.

Thinking of you and your entire family. Many fond memories of our times in Berea,so long ago. Lots of hugs for you, Ron,Lisa, and Lynn.

Very sorry for your loss, Ron and Susan. Though I never met your dad, his goodness is reflected in you and your kids. Take care. Joan Hastings

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

Leon hired me straight out of college way back in 1976. Armed with my B.S. in Accounting, I began my 23 year with Sohio/BP with Leon as my first boss. He was a quiet, yet firm, fair, and a determined leader who I was proud to work for through his retirement. I will also never forget Donna's world famous cheesecake that Leon faithfully delivered on each and every "goody day".
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I was so very sad to hear this news..Leon knew me from the beginning of my life in Oklahoma City and he and Donna have been dear family friends for many years. Love and thoughts to Donna, Ron, Lisa, Lynn and grandsons.

Godspeed Leon... A true gentleman and friend and neighbor in Glen Eagle.
