I remember Leon fondly from working on his clients in public accounting. I learned alot on how to work in public accounting and life lessons from Leon.
I recall auditors working on Leon's clients had to wrap up engagements at the clients vs in the office. He was on spot that wrapping up an engagement in the field would better serve the client vs wrapping up engagements in the office.
I recall how Leon was always impeccable dressed in the office and is welcoming hello for everyone in the office.
A true gentleman, mentor and impressionable leader early in my career.
