I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Leon (and Kate) fondly from their time in Drama at Long Bay College. Leon was a lovely person and I remember him especially for his gentleness and positivity. He was a special guy - and they don't come along every day.

Keep shining nephew, your (wairua) light will keep nanna & grandad busy. Go safely on your journey towards The Taylor Table, we will all be seated together again in time. I will always love you to the moon & back Leon. Your my first born nephew. Your arrival was so momentous in my life, a new Aunty role for me at 10 years old! I so proud then, and it continued forward through this earth, thank you for being such a beautiful soul. We will hug & share more laughs, and again in yet another new place. Rest peacefully
love Aunty Evelyn xox

Leon,
A beautiful old soul. The most kindest loving, positive loving guy. I love you and Kate so much x
A memory that I will always treasure is hanging out with you and Kate we started discussing toast and toppings lol which moved the conversation into how if the toast wasnt toasted enough it would crumb when you buttered it...in that moment we created the perfect word crumpils as the crumbs looked like pilling. Ill always think of you when I get them on my toast Leon.
Love ya dude!
