“I worked for Leon many years at Woodlast. Leon was a good man that is going to be missed dearly. I had the pleasure of seeing him bouts a month ago. May God be with the family, for I send my prayers and thoughts out to each one of the Lovell family. God Bless.”

“My sincere condolences to the Lovell family Leon help break me into the sales side of the veneer business many years ago We enjoyed many steaks, oysters and laughs together at the famous Coys But my fondest memory of Leon is how he treated my boys on a few buying trips to Woodlast 20 years ago When I shared the news with them my oldest son said " that is sad, Leon was cool" can you imagine Leon being called cool But I guess when you are only 9 He is gone but the memories will last David Nichols”
