I had the pleasure of working for Mr. Leonhardt beginning in 1981, my senior year of high school. He was a wonderful man and mentor, and I learned so much from him during those years. I will always remember fondly the stories he used to tell and how much he loved his family. May God bless you all during this difficult time.

Sher,

What a beautiful photo of your father! I only knew him through email communications between you and me...and through those, I learned that you are a loving and nurturing person; not just with your dad, but with your cats, your family, and friends. You did everything possible to ensure your dad's life was comfortable and better in his final years. I pray that God helps you through this difficult time..and please know that you have friends wherever and whenever you choose to call on us.
