Leo was a great guy always ready to give a helping hand. When I was a young man Leo and Connie would take Rog and Lucienne to pick me up at Logan airport whenever I returned home from the military. The routine was we stopped for a wonderful meal at Anthony's pier 4. He has been in my prayers since I heard of his illness. My sympathy to all of you especially Ron and Janet.
