Uncle Leon, I will never forget how you taught me to slow dance.  I know for sure I will dance with you again in heaven!
Love you!
Your Niece, Jodi

Leon, 

You will be missed dearly. Thank you for being my dad's lifelong friend and brother. All of his happiest memories from his childhood involve you and always bring him so much joy when he tells us stories. You will be always be deeply loved and treasured by your Murphy Family. 

Love your Goddaughter, 

Jillian 

I thank God that Anne and I found you and got to spend time together if only for a few days.   My memories are of a gentle, yet brave and loving soul.  Leon, I wish  we had more time together but guess God had other plans for you.   Rest In Peace  my angel brother.  

 Love Sis  Leigh

You always called me Kimberly instead of Kim and I have lots of memories of visiting you in Panama City and California. You told stories just like Poppy, with the same expression. You will be greatly missed Uncle Leon!!

You will be missed by all Uncle Leon. Many cherished memories!

Dear Frankie, Sue, Leon's children and family, 
I remember growing up with your brother and Dad and all the fun we had in Poughkeepsie in the old neighborhood, when we were so young.  I am so sorry for your loss. We lost another great person at far too early an age. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. 
God Bless, 
             Michael Tornatore
