Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Our deepest sympathy to the family. I worked with Leonard’s wife, Rosemary, and had many nice visits with them. I have fond memories of both of them. May God bless you with peace and comfort.
Rest Leonard, until you hear at dawn, the low, clear reveille of God. Thank you for your service to this nation. U.S. Army Air Corps, WWII.
