dont know why i navigated to this page...but i guess i've a word. just one. Donk. miss ya bro.

Dawn We were very sorry to hear of Leon's passing it was such a shock. It seemed like we had just read in the Sentinal that he had graduated from boot camp. We are very proud of Leon and the fact that he was serving our country. We were happy to have him with us all through scouting, we have memories that we will never forget. As a former Marine I am truely Honored by your ultimate sacrifice. Be assured that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Leon was a great American and Airman who gave his most to serving his country and fellow Americans. His legacy will live long after him and our memory will be deeply embedded with our experiences and feelings of his life with us. Rest in peace, Leon.

Sheilalynne and I are so saddened by your loss. You certainly are in our prayers and we will say a special prayer today at mass for Leon. Love you Dawn, Steven & Sheilalynne Bono

Dawn: Words seem so inadequate to touch and heal the depth of your loss. But know that you continue in my thoughts and prayers.

Dawn; No words can heal your loss. You are in my prayers. Asha Gupta

Dawn, you are in my prayers, I am so sorry for your lost.

May you rest in peace, Little Leon. We know you are in a much better place now. Please look down on your mom and dad and help take some of there pain away. We will always miss you.

My husband & will want to extend our deepest condolenscenes to you and your family. Leon had often been here with our son Evan and I alsways enjoyed his visits. We will miss him. He was a very wonderful young man that we had the pleasure to know.

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Words can not heal your broken heart. The love and friendship of those that care about Leon and about you, will help, over time. I am grateful for the love, friendship and happiness he gave our daughter. Those gifts he gave to us, as well, and we will cherish them, always. Leon was a fine young man. Quirky and formal. Always polite. The stories I heard as the kids grew up, made me shake me head in confusion or put a smile on my face. That's how I will remember him. We are so proud and honored to have known him and thank him for serving his country. He is loved and will be missed. You are an amazing person and I am so glad to know you. Be strong xoxox

Maggie and Leonard, I am so very sorry for your loss. I didn't know Leon, but will be praying for you and the entire family. I thank Leon for his courageous efforts to protect and serve us all and preserve our freedom. Kathy

when it comes to describing how people must feel during times like these, i honestly think words just fail. there are no words to describe the pain we feel at having lost so much. Leon was one the best friends I've ever had and will ever have. He will never be forgotten, and the love we all have for him will continue to burn until the end of our days. Love and prayers, Jonathan

I love you Leon. I will miss you terribly.

There are no words that can mend a broken heart, there are no boundries that will keep us apart, we all in our time will see each other agian, God Bless you Leon, for now we have your memories and were proud to call you friend... I know that your mom loved you so much as well as everyone you met. When i hear about how bright your light shined i just know that weve gained a beautiful star in the sky.

I remember how he use to run around and my sister Dawn saying" you know your not suppose to get into that Leon". I have always been proud of him and I have always loved him. He was my nephew and he will be missed, but forever in my thoughts and heart. " He is like the wind. You can not see him...but you will always feel him".

Dawn, Words can't express how sorry we are for your loss. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Lou and Nancy

Dear Dawn There are no words to console the lost of ones child,-- only time and pleasant memories will help. Our prayers are with you. Mark & Barb Richter

Dear Dawn and family I am saddened and so sorry of your sudden loss. i will remember Leon as as a well behaved inquisitive intelligent child who always placed nicely with Liz, Kevin and Robert when they were together as kids.

Please know that you and your family are in our daily prayers. with love, Kathy, Liz and Kevin
