Leo was honored to serve his country during WWII. He supported the Catholic church, his community as a firefighter and Rogers Grocery business owner. Looking at photos from recent and past was a fond passion, he could tell you a story and the history behind each one. His antique model car collection was another love of his, knowing each of them by year, make and model. Leo’s greatest love was enjoying time with family and friends, especially if there was a card game involved.

Due to our world circumstances at this time, an intimate burial service was held exclusively with immediate family on May 2, 2020 at the St. Martin’s Cemetery in Rogers, MN.
