Leon,as you were known to me, it’s truely hard to believe you’re no longer here with us. Only God knows why you had to leave, and as hard as it may be, we have to accept it and believe that we will see you again one day. You were like my second son, you always stayed in touch no matter where you were, and came by to see me when you were in the area. Will never forget you, Love Always, your other mom.
I did not know Marvin, but knew his mother Pat. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I know your mother, wife, and children, and anyone you came in contact with, will truly miss you! Pat, you are sooooo strong. I know you and Bubba can make it, talk to GOD!
Son, My heart breaks for the sound of your voice just to hear it again.If just in my sleep, would give me peace, and just know my love for you is bigger than LIFE, MOM aka “YOUNG LADY” as only you call me. Love you Son

May the LORD keep you in perfect peace Marvin Denise Mitchell To: Pat It has been a great priviledge to have known such a kind, caring, loving ,giving,and respectful young man. To lose a love one is always hard, to comfort your heartache and pain, just trust in GOD; when you feel lonely, sad and blue, just pray to GOD, he’ll pull you through Time will heal all pains. If you ever need anything just call me. I;ll be there for you Your Sis

Gifts are never lost they live on to out give the giver. Love Uncle Shorty
Marvin, words can not describe how difficult this is for me. Know that you will truly be missed Love you always.
ONE NIGHT A MAN HAD A DREAM.HE DREAMED HE WAS WALKING ALONG THE BEACH WITH THE LORD. ACROSS THE SKY FLAHED SCENES FROM HIS LIFE. FOR EACH SCRENE, HE NOTICED TWO SETS OF FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND,ONE BELONGED TO HIM, AND THE OTHER TO THE LORD. MAY GOD KEEP YOU WITH HIM ALWAYS. LOVE AUNT LILLIE
MIMI, PRAYING FOR YOU AT THIS TIME OF LOSS MAY YOU HAVE MEMORIES TO TURN TO FOR COMFORT, FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO TURN TO FOR SUPPORT. AND FAITH IN GOD TO GIVE YOU HOPE, STRENGTH AND COURAGE. GOD WILL ALWAYS KEEP YOU STRONG IF YOU BELIEVE IN HIM. LOVE HATTIE
Love is stronger than death even though it can’t stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can’t separate people from love. It can’t take away our memories either. In the end, life is stronger than death.

I am very sorry to hear about the passing of Leon. I knew nothing about this until I saw the post of Lee’s Alumni site. Leon was a very sweet person who, when I was new to Lee, helped me to feel welcome in a new, scary place.
I am so sorry to hear that Leon has passed on. He was always so positive and funny during the years that I was friends with him. I still remember a dance we were at in 7th or 8th grade. We had fun dancing with friends and he always made myself and others laugh. He will and is missed by all that knew him. Rest In Peace Leon.

Still think of you quite often, and miss being able to call you on your birthday and hearing your voice sing Happy Birthday when you would call me on mine. You will never be forgotten, nor will the times we ( myself and Shaun) had with you, your mom and Derek over the years. You’ll always have a special place in my heart.

Its been 2 years and since you passed and everyday I wish you were still here with the family. WE MISS YOU BEYOND WORDS CAN DESCRIBE!

You’ll never be forgotten and you always told mommy someday i would get my act together. You were right and I thank you for everything you did for us. I love you Leon. -Derek
Marvin was an awesome guy! We played football together and his smile on the field was one of the best. He was a great friend and I never heard him say anything bad about anyone. I saw this recently and sad he passed a few years ago. Marvin you will be missed my friend but I am very grateful to have met you.
