This news has given me a heavy heart. My sincere condolences to the Leonard family. Mr. Billy and my father were very close friends for a long time. I was very fond of him, he always treated me so kindly with a warm heart and always had a joke to tell. He lit the room up wherever he was. I enjoyed hearing him sing too. One day I complimented the tie he was wearing, he gave it to me right there. That’s the kind of man he was. I will miss him.
