  1. My deepest condolences to the family for your loss, may the God of all comfort be a source of comfort to you during this most difficult time – 2Corinthians 1:4; Psalms 83:18.

  2. My Condolences goes out to his entire Family, including Cindy. I will always remember the Good times we had on the road gigs away from Tokyo. We always had a good laugh in between stages. May you Rest In Peace Leonard

  3. First I would like to thank those that supported me thru my time of sorrow and pains. This for Jackie (1st wife and mother of his 1st) and myself. I don’t want t us to be the forgotten ones because we were a .major of his life,.. Cindi was after Jackie and I. Leonard and I met and fell head over heels in love with each other. I was in the USAF and he was playing with CHAD… Well, long story short, I was eventually assigned out..my job kept me from People at the time. We lost contact, he went to Japan, met Cindy (she reminded him of me) and she begged him to marry her. The bottom line is God saw fit to reunite me with my Husband, my soul mate until death did we part. We promised eachother that whoever went first, the other had to be by their side and be the last face they see and the last breathe they take. I was there holding and caressing him. I closed his eyes and placed his hand across his chest. For the exception for God himself, no one meant more to me than Leonard. I would ride and die for him. R.I.P….I miss you and w always love you…. Your True Wife in the eyes of God.,..
