Not sure what to say?

May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of your father...

What a guy-only met him when Eric married Lisa,but he was so full of life.

Sad to read of the passing of "Buddy". Great guy, super friend at McKinley High. R.I.P. special friend. Condolances to family.

We were so sorry to hear of Bud's passing. He was truly a fine man whose family meant the world to him. We always greatly appreciated his outstanding support to a fledgling Oakville Football Program as inexperianced young coaches. Bud will always be remembered fondly. Our prayers and thoughts are with the Leach Family at this difficult time. God Bless, Bob & Jill Robidoux

We were so sorry to hear of Bud's passing and the loss the Leach family is enduring. He was such a fine man with a family that meant everything to him. We always appreciated his solid support to a fledgling Oakville Football Program as young, inexperianced coaches. Bud will be missed and will always be in our thoughts. Our prayers go to the family.

Kellie, I am so sorry for your dad's passing. You are a true friend and it pains me to know you are hurting. I have the entire parish of Good Shepherd praying for you, your dad and your family. I love you so much!!

So sad to hear of the passing of truly one of the kindest and most genuine men that I had the pleasure to know growing up near South Grand in the 60's through 80's. I first met the Leaches through junior league football with Ken and have great memories of times together at Grand and Klocke and later out on Lemay Ferry. As I recall, Bud was a helluva halfback out of McKinley High who played a lot of football in the Navy. Years of life have made me more truly appreciate the life that Bud led...

Vickie , so sorry to hear of your dad passing. Love and prayers to you and your family. Lori

My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Leach family. "Bionic Bud" was a loving man who succeeded in many things, one of which was raising six beautiful and talented children who gave him many wonderful grandchildren. I will never forget his cute smile and the twinkle in his eyes. Each time I saw him he welcomed me with a warm hug and would say "Hi Beautiful", and my response to him was "Hi Handsome". He is a father and grandfather to be proud of and will be missed by many.
