Leo, I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I had not seen your Dad or your Mom for years. But I always thought about them and Amy and you as well.
I have also lost both parents and a sibling. And recently Jim my husband. It is hard but it does get easier with time.You will find that all you remember is the good times. The bad ones fade away. I was so happy to hear you had some time with your Dad in the last days. Cherish that.

So sorry for your loss and my prayers go out to the family! Leo, Bobby, Jimmy, and Alice were a part of my childhood and growing years in Akron Ohio. After moving to TN in the early 70's I lost track of a lot of those people from the early days from the Bittman, Balch street areas.
My deepest sympathies for you all and Gods blessings to each of you.
Proud Father

God's speed, Leo,Mary be with you.
You were there for The Business Blues Band , controlling the sound for thousands to hear.Heaven needed a sound man for those billions of musicians there. And he got the best.
Never to be one that didn't have a smile, through everything.
God Bless and Mary be with the Kormanik
family.
