<p>Leon loved life. He was a man of simple pleasures and a simple, but strong faith. He was an avid fisherman and outdoorsman. From traveling and hiking to just working around the house and farm, he was normally outside. He was a very giving person and was always available to help anyone with any kind of need. He loved to laugh and joke around. He was always drawn to kids and they seemed to love his smiles and attention. He will be missed terribly by all those who love him.</p>
