So very sorry for your loss. I had the great pleasure of working many a summer, during my school years, with Leo when he worked with my father Karl. I can still picture Leo, with his full head of hair slicked back and a mouthful of chew. At lunch his silver metal lunch pail. He was always kind, humorous, patient and a joy to work with. Rest In Peace Leo.
