Leave a tribute for Leonard Dale Holman Sr..
I'm so sorry to hear this. It's been 3 years and I honestly hadn't heard anything about it. I knew Leonard for a lot of years. He was a regular Eli Witney when it came to welding or fixing a radiator. I asked a friend of mine if he knew Leonard's phone number because I had some welding I needed done. And he told me he had died. I thought he was kidding. I was that surprised about it. He was a good friend & I wish I'd stayed in touch with him better. I'm so sorry for his family. WOW! Hard to believe!
