    Ollie, I am so sorry to hear of Leonard’s passing. I have only know Leonard for a short time but what I knew about him was when he believed in something he would be 100% committed to it whole heart, soul and mind. He had a heart and love to do good for his community. He is now gone home watching over his community from above. Ollie I pray God will give you comfort during this difficult time.
