Bwana Six-Gun Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Found out this AM that Leon had gone to his maker. Tried to post the full details, but could not. He was a great ambassador to our sport and a fine gentleman. I will miss him as will all who knew him. He was a great guy and I will think our sport is the lesser with his loss.

Sean Gaines Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) I shot my first major match with leon. He was a great guy, always had a smile on his face. When you saw him, he shook your hand and you knew he was genuinely happy to see you. We definitely lost a true friend....
