Roddy and Leon's family,
It has been a lot of years since we've seen Leon, but we remember him well from our days at Barnwell High School. I know that his passing is a huge loss for the Riddle family. I wanted Roddy and family to know that we are thinking of them during these sorrowful times. May God bless his soul and lighten the sadness for the family.

I am so sorry to hear of Leon's death. I did not realize he was so sick. We had just begun chatting on Facebook and remembering when we lived next door to each other. He was a good friend of my brother Charles Browning who died some years ago. He was anxious for me to place a picture on facebook that I have of him when he was teenager. He asked that I hurry and do this. I am so sorry that I did not get this done. I know that he will be greatly missed. I have lost a friend.

As a young child, I grew up next door to the Riddle family. My brother and Leon were always good friends. We had just started chatting on facebook. We always talked about those days and it truly saddens me about his death. Deanie Browning HOlland Albany, Ga
