Deepest Sympathy to the Leonard Family. While I had only met Aunt Nell a few times in my life I new who best through the recollections of her sister Mary, my Grandmother, who spoke fondly of all her siblings and reminisced often about her childhood and young adult days living and growing up in various parts of Placentia Bay.

To the entire Leonard family, I was so sad to hear of the passing of Mrs. Nell. I don’t know of a kinder, gentler soul… Mom always talked about what great friends she and Mrs. Annie were to Nanny Collins. I hope it is some comfort to know she is reunited with so many loved ones, especially your Dad and brothers. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Sending love to you all!

There are not enough words in the English Language to pay tribute to this wonderful Lady. What a sweetheart! I’m sure I loved her as much as my own mother. It was always such a pleasure to visit her and see that smiling face, to joke, torment and be repaid with the utmost kindness and generosity of her pleasant personality. She indeed, was the salt of the earth and the wonderful memories of her will remain will reman with us forever. My sincere condolences to all the family members and this comes from the bottom of my heart.

Myself and my sister, Rosemary had a great opportunity to visit this lady at her home a few years ago. She was a cousin of my mom, Marguerite Bennett(nee Flynn), she was as happy to see us as we were her. She told us stories of our mom growing up, and talked a lot about her children, she could not say enough about Harold. She was a great story teller, she show pictures of her family which there were many, named them all. A great legacy for sure. I brought pictures of my mom and my aunt Minnie to show her. It had been a long time since she had seen either of them, it took a while for the recognition, but as she did, she looked at me and said “you look so much like Marguerite”. We stayed and talked for about 11/2 hrs. It was one of the highlights of my life getting to visit with this lady who is and was part of my extended family....may she Rest In Peace...... Mary Bennett

If roses grow in heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my mother in-laws arms
And tell her they are from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her
And when she turns and smiles
Place a kiss upon her cheek
And hold her for awhile.
Remembering her is easy
I do it every day
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away xoxo
