I’m so sorry for your loss. Leon was my mentor and friend for over 25 years. He always encouraged me in all my business endeavors and saw the potential in me that others dismissed. He taught me about real estate and encouraged me to buy smart. Leon made a huge impression on my life and I will miss him deeply. I just hope I can honor him by fulfilling my potential that only he saw. Goodbye friend

My sincerest condolences to your family. Leon was such a wonderful person and in many ways reminded me of my own father. He was a man of strength, wisdom and love. He had an incredible laugh and sense of humor. I will always cherish the memories I had of him either sharing his wise words or making me laugh and ready for pranks. I wish had more opportunities to talk to him and hear is life journey and give him a hug. Thank you for always having a seat for me at Thanksgiving dinners. This is a precious family that I sincerely will always love from the deepest part of my heart. I pray that God gives you all, Steph, Christina, and Jaenette, the strength to get through this difficult time. May his soul rest in peace.
You will be missed! Love you.
