Walter, my name is Bob Anderson. Leo, you and Coy were friends with myself and my brother Harold. We all went to Sulligent High together. I finished high school in 1956 so you and Leo where older than me and Coy was younger. A great loss of a wonderful guy. While we were in college Leo, Joe Mosley. L. C. Flower and myself went to Birmingham to watch Alabama play. We had a great time as always. My heart is heavy as Leo was a great friend and I will always remember him as such.
I live in Houston, Texas now and very seldom get back home. God Bless you and all the family and know Leo is watching over you guys
