I remember Leonard from our days at St. Johns High School where we played on the football team and later where we shared many enjoyable visits to each others homes. Leonard was a good athlete as a marathon runner and baseball player. He was a loyal family man and friend. Our sincere condolences to Doreen and his daughters.

I am so sorry for your loss. As a childhood friend to Debbie, I have know Mr. Wardale for most of my life. I have wonderful memories of seeing Mr. Wardale riding his bike down Templeton Ave( after he retired) , doing his errands, rain or shine. It always amazed me that he did that eventhough he had a car sitting at home. Growing up, Mr and Mrs Wardale were always so nice to me and made me feel so welcomed in their home. Wishing your family peace and comfort at this difficult time - Posted by: Rina Lischka (friend) on: Mar 07, 2026
