I went to USF with Leo and remember him sitting around a table in the Green and Gold Room talking politics. He was a good guy and his friendship is one of the things that makes my days at USF precious. My condolences to his family. He will always be remembered in my prayers.

To the McCarthy Family,
Your dad, and wonderful husband Lynda, was the best. We loved living across the street from you and Leo always loved to chat and catch up on the latest. I will always miss seeing him get in that little white rodster of his and zip down the street.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love to you all,
The Murphys

Dear Lynda and Family. Thank you very much for letting me get to know you. Though I've spent more time with you Lynda, I will never forget how kind Leo was to me when I was in the hospital a few years ago. Leo had a kind of charm that was never phony or too sweet. I felt that he genuinely cared for me and I know how much he loved you and the kids. Years ago, after my first wife died, I found a small mirror in her purse. On the back of the mirror is a picture of several balloons and the words, "Celebrate being alive". I have always thought of these words as Denise's last message to me. I have no doubt that Leo too would want you all to celebrate being alive. You are all in my prayers, as is Leo. God bless you,
