This whole thing is really sad.
I have three little girls of my own.

RIP Leo.

The tribute at the track was nice, I was stuck in the lanes and listening though.

Only met the man once but you could tell he was quite a character. He cared about the people around him as well as the customers he did work for. RIP Leo.

Brought tears to my eyes watching this tribute to Leo. But he is in a better place and looking down on all of us cheering us on.

Rest In Peace My Brother.

I still can't believe you are gone.
