Dear Erika I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Leonard. We had great times at Northern Messenger and every time I saw him after that we always stopped to talk. A very pleasant man. Condolences and prayers. - Posted by: Glen Ambrose (friend/co-worker) on: Dec 18, 2013

Erika and family. I am so sorry to hear about Leonard. Leonard was my best childhood friend and remained so all these years even though we have not seen each other since my leaving Manitoba. He was never far away in my mind. Claudia and I recently celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and in a video presentation, there was a picture of Leonard and I, side by side, all smiles, full of hope for our tomorrows.I had promised myself that I would look you both up the next time I was in Winnipeg. We would have the longest talks on all kind of subjects, growing up from young boys to young men. As he has done for many, he made a big difference in my life. - Posted by: Ron Gratton (Childhood friend) on: Dec 18, 2013
