I have not seen Leon since high school (SHS,Class of 85) but will say he wss a alright guy. He smiled all the time and was funny. We had a few classes together from our freshmen yr and we became friends. I will be lifting the family up today as you lay him to rest. May you all look to God for strength and Peace.

My condolence to the McWright family. It wasn't too long ago, I was were you are now, and my heart is hurting for you. Mr McWright was a very kind man. Before My Husband passed they would talk and speak on things of how to make the world a better place. Well now I know they're together with the Master planner and they will get this thing worked out!!! He and my husband were very hard working family oriented men, who were devoted to their families. Especially their children, but children in general, they knew their language. I was blessed to have know him for such a short time. But, again I know where you are, I'm praying for you, for strength, and comfort, and most of all faith, that we will get through this until we get to be with them on the side!!! Be Blessed!!!

We will miss your smiling face, your crazy antics, your contagious laugh. You were always there at the house cutting up with Reggie and Billy as teenagers. Good times! We love and will miss you, from the entire Barron Family. May God comfort Leon's family during this time of bereavement. Ava Barron Walker.
