Not sure what to say?

When I was a young fan I hoped one day I could be another "Tom" that had nice looking cars and go fast... and now I do. A good man gone. Prayers to Tom and his family.

Tommy, I'll never forget hearing "Hey, farmer!" and hanging around for hours, shooting the bull over a cold Genesee with you. You were one heck of a genuine, honest person, and everyone who ever knew you was the better for it. I know you'll be watching out for all of us down here. Rest in peace, I'll miss you.

RIP Uncle Tommy...I will forever cherish all the memories I have of you as I was growing up. Thank you for being a positive role model in my life and my brother's as well. We will miss you. I am sorry I can't be there for Aunt Linda, Robin and Paula at this time but please know that I love and miss you all. Heaven has gained another angel...Lord watch out Tiger Tommy Leeson and the #97 snoopy are headed to the great racetrack in the sky. :-(

I'm not great with words, but condolences to the entire Leeson family. I'll never forget Tiger Tom driving Ole Snoopy at Oswego. He will live on in our memories.

It's taken me all week to try and fine some words to write. What can one say when one of their old friends and hero's passes away. Many of the best memories in my life are the ones I had with Tom, Linda and the rest of the 97 crew. I hope one day we can together go racing in heaven. Tom was a great person as well as a great race car driver. I'm very proud that I was with Tom and Linda through some great years of racing. The history and fans of Oswego Speedway will always remember the fan...

Our thoughts and prayers go out Linda, Paula, Robin and there families with the loss of Tom. He was a great husband, father and grandfather. He was proud of his life accomplishments and shared his joy with everyone. He will be sorely missed by all of us.

I am absolutely heartbroken! Tommy has been in my life since I was little. I remember all the trips to Oswego to watch him, going to his house and sitting in his super modified being careful not to touch cause it was just painted and spending bring your child to work nights at the Kodak garage with him and all the others. He was a really important memory in my life and I loved him and Linda very much! My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family!

one of the nicest guys you ever want to meet,always looked forward as a kid going out to the shop with my Dad to work on Tommy's race car.he will be missed by many !!!

Linda, I am so sorry. Hope your memories bring you comfort, and family support help you through these difficult times.
