Dear Bev and family,
So sorry to hear of Leo's passing! He was a wonderful and gracious man, a loving husband and father, and a mentor and adviser to many. And, also, an excellent boss! He definitely had the old school work ethic, but yet, tried diligently to find family time, as well. He came into my life at a time when I was searching for direction, and he provided that for me. He also possessed a big servant's heart - willing to do whatever he could to help others, especially utilizing his financial knowledge skills.
He leaves a great legacy for his family, and will be remembered and missed! R.I.P., Leo! You are, and have been, blessed!
Gratefully,
Bob and Renee Wade

I was blessed to have such a wonderful uncle and Godfather. Uncle Leo was so steadfast, kind and gracious as he hosted the "Wisconsin Hubers" so often when we would make the drive to Rock Island to visit Grandma Huber. Loved spending time with Uncle Leo, Aunt Bev, and the Kerker cousins. I will miss you!

Bev & family. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all at this time of sadness. Howie & I feel extra blessed that we were able to see you & Leo when you came for your visits to Colorado. Your marriage was an inspiration to all of us as to being "soul mates", full of love and respect for each other. Mike, you are like a son to us, much love & a big embrace of hugs to you . Mary, sweet Mary, our hearts ache for you as well, you are truly an awesome young lady, showing what wonderful parents you have. I have always said that children are a reflection of their parents. Leo was loved by all, and many cherished friendships he has gathered on his journey of life. The love of his family was an attribute of his gentle, sweet soul. Blessings to each of you....
