To Mrs Riggio, Stephanie and your families.... My sincerest condolences. We met while you visited Churchill, Manitoba in '22. May you all find comfort during this difficult time.

I am sorry to read about Leonard Riggio passing away. I enjoyed working at one of the Barnes & Noble locations as a contract security guard for a little over three years. I liked the friendly store environment, the courteous Barnes and Noble employees, and the friendly customers. I feel that Leonard Riggio did a lot of good to a lot of people. I send my condolences to his family, friends, and his employees of the past.

RIP Leonard
