Tributes

Uncle Leroy was always the uncle that made me laugh the most. His sense of humor was always there. My fondest memory of him has always been the two summers I worked for him roofing houses. He always kept me laughing, plus he is only person I've ever seen who could carry two bundles of shingles over his shoulder and up a ladder but never touch the ladder with his hands. I never understood how he could do that. RIP Uncle Leroy ... say hello to Mom and Dad for me.

I was very young but I will always remember going to Uncle Leroy and Aunt Aquila to play games. They had a cellar out the back door and as kids we thought that was so neat. They would let us play and get into just about anything. lol Leroy was always good to us kids. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and all those whose lives he impacted.
