Leo was such a happy colleague and friend with a big welcoming smile for everyone.  His dedication to his students and his willingness to always help out a friend and staff member will always be remembered. He will truly be missed by all who knew him.  He made this world a better place by teaching kindness and respect to the thousands of students who passed through his classroom. My sincere sympathy to his wife and family.      Linda Christy     C.V.M.S.  Retired
