Gil and Carol, I'm so sorry to hear you have lost your brother. I don't know your family, Gil, but my thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you go through this difficult time. Sending you love

Leon was one of my idols. Soft spoken and quiet, he was always interested in how others were doing. As a seminary teacher in Moscow Idaho he organized a temple excursion for the young people that resulted in one of the young girls pleading with her partially active father to take the family to the temple. That father later served as a bishop and on the high council. Leon was a great example for all of us.

I love Dr. Orme! He was so very good to me. I learned so much from him, and have so many happy memories of my BYU days spent under his tutelage. One of the best, and I count myself blessed to have known him.
