What a Wonderful Blessing to have a great Uncle. He has always been someone to look up to and he always gave a good lesson about helping yourself. I was fortunate to have grown up with uncle Leon and was a first hand witness to his kindness. I will surely miss him, but know he is with the Lord and in good hands. Many Blessings and much love to my aunt Mary, Rocky and Tina and my family.
