Not sure what to say?

I worked with Leonard at PSE in Everett. I had an English Bulldog and Leonard always asked me about her. He brought me a little sandcast bulldog back from one of his trips ( I think it was Hawaii ) I always enjoyed talking with him about his love of travel, especially cruises. I was so sorry to hear of his passing.

May the "God of comfort" (2 Cor. 1:3) provide you with all the necessary support, thru the words contained in his Word that you need at this most difficult time.

My condolences to Leonards family and friends. I worked with Leonard at the former WNG and now with PSE, he was always easy to talk to and also a great source for information. You will be missed Leonard.

I met Leonard on 11 Feb.1974, my first day of work at WNG. We were both Ballardites at the time. As a helper I was assigned to his truck, we worked together quite abit.

I have worked with Leonard for my entire career here at WNG/PSE. He taught me how to find a gas pipeline with two twigs.

He was so friendly, funny, positive, generous, and such a devoted father and family man. I loved talking to him about sports and his family vacations but he really lit up when talking about his family. I am so sorry for the family as I can imagine the pain his absence will cause, but I hope they find...

I never met Leonard, but I heard about him through working with his son, Jeff. He sounded like a great man. My condolences to the Benson family. -Clint R.

Over the years working with Leonard, many fond memories of hearing his voice on the phone. Condolences to the family and friends. I can still hear his voice.
"can you write..." take care Leonard.
