Leo was involved in the meat and grocery business for over 50 years, first working in St. George before relocating as a meat manager to stores in Moncton and Grand Falls. He operated his own meat and grocery business in Grand Falls for over 40 yea

rs and took much pride in the quality of his merchandise and customer service. He served on the Grand Falls town council for a number of years, and was a life member of the Knights of Columbus.

Leo was a strong family man and took great pleasure in family picnics and outings with his children, sharing his love of ice skating and swimming. He was a voracious reader and loved to discuss and debate ideas, placing great emphasis on the valu

e of a good education -- his penmanship was second to none. In his later years, he looked forward to visits with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren who always brought a smile to his face.
