I think of Leon when things get tough. I am so grateful that I had a chance to participate in life with him, even ever so briefly. May his family carry the torch that he lit, may it continue to shine brightly for the next generation. His message of grit and determination in the face of adversity is needed by all. I am praying for the family especially Leon and London. Thanks for sharing your dad with us.

When I was a sophomore,Leon was a senior. Leon and I shared a class together. TV Productions, in that class, trying to fit in, I sat at the table nearest to where he and a few others were sitting. Leon, very outgoing reached out to me and just got to know me, then when it came time to do class projects. Leon asked me to work with him. Class after class we became closer and closer. Talking about families, sports, and the most common discussion, music. I remember Busta Rhymes dropped an album titled "Genesis" and Leon and I would sit in the 'control room' in TV Productions and we would THUUUUMP that album. The teacher Mr. Killion would come in and puff his chest out to get us to turn it off. But Leon, quick witted and charming wouldn't budge and would convince Mr Killion that he was overreacting. Eventually, me and Leons interactions extended beyond the class. Dap in the hallways. Conversations before school, after school, during passing period or popping our heads into each others classes. By extension and association, my popularity began to rise. People saw me associated with Leon and other Seniors and began talking to me. Which at that point in my life, was crucial. At that age, I needed affirmation. Fast forward to now, I have always loved and appreciated and reflected on Leon and what he did for me without knowing in my teenage years. The seniors I hung out with my Senior year always were missed, but the one I missed the most was Leon. I bought a K.N.O.E shirt a few years ago and I was so proud to wear it, knowing I was representing a man I admired and respected. Social media and messenger reconnected me with Leon and I was inspired and so proud of the man he became. His energy, his attitude, his humble heart, his unwavering faith and his pure unconditional love he displayed to the world is beautiful. I aspired to be on his level in highschool, and that continues into manhood, as a husband and father, if I am 25% of the man he was I would consider myself lucky.
Leon, thank you. For doing something for me that you had no idea you did. You were larger than life to so many people, you knew you were great, but im not sure if you know on what scale. You were that humble.
To his wife, and his beautiful children. My prayers are for your hearts. I pray that in this heartbreaking time that the LORD is the focus. That your trust, patience, aches and pains are all thrusted towards Him. I pray that the Spirit fills your hearts. I pray for peace and joy.
Scripture, God's word promises those who trust in Him will inherit the Kingdom. Followers will rest in Heaven and one day Heaven will decend and we will one day live in the New Earth. Hold onto hope and faith in God. One day you 3 will be reunited with the incredible husband and father that has parted away from you.
Thank you Leon. Rest Peacefully. God Bless you.

I found Leon on IG, like many people, and I was always touched by his optimism and positivity. He was an amazing man and I'm sorry our paths never physically crossed. I hope he is resting in paradise now. Heaven gained an amazing angel, that's for sure! Rest in power, King.

I became a fan/follower of Leon when I stumbled across his IG page. I hit the follow button immediately! He boasted so much positivity and good vibes that it was contagious! Even on his bad days he let us strangers into his life but he remained positive! I will always remember him for that and I believe that is his legacy! My condolences and prayers go to his wife, children, and family! May his soul rest in paradise!

I caught wind of Leon on Instagram. Let’s just say that I knew that he was a God fearing brother with a good heart. Seeing how he loved and doted on his wife and kids, hope he inspired others, and was a ray of love and joy is rare!! I know that it hurts so bad that he’s gone. I can’t imagine the pain and the weight of his loss. I will continue to pray for you all!
God bless you and keep you!

My condolences to Leon's entire family. Through Social Media is where I connected with Leon and his story. Powerful presence had. Scrolling through my timeline I would see his post and after reading I felt calm. Almost daily his post poured into me of gratitude. No coincidence I stumbled across Leon's page. So many times my cup was on empty and Leon filled me. I pray Leon's family is wrapped in love and strength for all days. PEACE AND BLESSINGS

Rest In Peace Leon. I didn’t know you, but found your Instagram and immediately followed you. It was obvious how incredible of a person you were, and how strong you were during your battles.
The world lost a really great guy, but I am sure he is looking down on his family smiling.
Thank you for always being positive, I know you helped me put things into perspective, and I am sure I am not the only one.
