Saddened to hear of your passing. You were a great funny man and friend for many school years. We lost touch but it was always great to witness the love you had for your family. Im so very sorry for them but glad they had the privilege of having you so involved in their lives. Always forever polite and such a beautiful person all the way around!
So glad to have known you!

I just realized that Leo had passed. He was one of my best friends in High School and we stayed in touch after through social media. I have so many awesome memories of him and our whole high school crew. I am thankful for all of the pictures I have that show his amazing spirit. He was truly one of the kindest souls. Love you Leo!! I hope you're enjoying your alien abduction lamp from wherever you are. xo

Leo Love, as I always referred to you as!!! I am so saddened and heartbroken to hear of your passing. You were such a good friend to me and I know how much you loved your family! It was infectious! We never got to meet up in person but we spent the last four years getting to know each other. We always encouraged and supported each other through these years and I feel blessed to have even gotten to know you the way that I did! You had so many beautiful qualities and I want to send condolences to your family! I will never forget what we shared and you will always be in my heart with positivity and love. I was always so incredibly proud of you and your strength in all that you were doing and going through. I will forever miss you and regret the chances that we never took to meet because life gets in the way. I hope you are at peace and maybe one day, we will meet in Paris!!!!

I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear this tragic news. I was a neighbor of Leo’s. Several days a week he and I would exchange greetings while I was walking my white, fluffy puppy. He was always kind to her and to me. He mentioned several times that his mother/or grandmother also has/had a similar puppy. We will remember Leo and his kindness on our morning walks. May Leo rest in eternal peace in the arms of a loving Creator. The Reverend Charlotte Still Noble, Lakewood,OH

For years he was one of my greatest friends. I was blessed to be able spend so much time with him! We always had so much fun laughing, joking around and just being goofy. I wouldn't trade those days in for the world. As they're some of the greatest memories I have! Rest in peace my friend...things will never be the same here on Earth, but heaven just received a beautiful Angel

I only met Leo once after Angela moved into Redtail and my first impressions were what a wonderful, kind, sweet, and personable young man. RIP Leo and may God hold you in the Palm of His Hand.

Leo, thank you for the recent talks we had. Thank you for the support you’ve given me in the last few years. Thank you leading by example and living such a good life, and always facing the music and looking the world straight in the eye. I’m sorry we didn’t get together face to face like we had hoped on these past couple visits to Ohio, but I’m awfully glad we tried. I’ll always be grateful for your friendship.

I am so sorry to hear of Leo’s passing. He and I were both Cedar Estates kids growing up. He was always kind to everyone he met, and I enjoyed our chats on the school bus. The world lost a good one.
