I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the extended LeBlanc family. Leonard was a great man. I remember him from way back in the 80’s. Was always willing to put on the umpires gear and help out with kids games. He and his wife raised two great boys. Julien was one of my great friends growing up.
My heart goes out to them all.

I have many fond memories of Leonard from my younger days around the hockey rink and from when we worked together at the Irving service station on Champlain Street.
