The family and friends of Leonard have our most sincere condolences on your loss. I had not seen Leonard since our high school graduation. My picture of him in school is one of a smiling and cheerful individual. I called him in 2011 after our 50th reunion and found out at that time he had some serous health issues. HIs son's comments on the online guest book are the feelings that all parents hope their children have about them.

First I want to say, thank you to the strongest, most amazing man I ever knew. I would not be the Husband, Father, Grandfather or man I am today without you as my role model. You were the only Hero I have ever had, and my best friend. Dad, I will miss you so much and I hope I can be half the man you were.
Second I would like to thank everyone, all of Dad and Mom's friends for all of their love, help and support.
Last I want to thank my Brothers and Sister, Nieces, Nephews, In-laws my wonderful Wife and children.
