"Leo was one of my best friends in Wantagh HS, New York and we had not been in touch for many years so this news comes with much grief and a heavy heart. He was truly Leo the Lion hearted, and I will love him forever. May you rest in peace my dear friend."

Tributes
"Leo we will love you and remember you always. My boys still talk about "Papa Leo" and his knee clamps. All these weeks later and I still cannot believe you are in Heaven. Thank you for always caring about me and my kids (and for always calling to check on us), and for loving my Mom as you did. I love you. Until we meet again... "
"May Leo rest & enjoy eternal life with our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ..."
