Leo was an assiduous gatekeeper, for real ! As a teenager, I stopped by to visit my cousin's after just relocating to Houston from Detroit. I asked if Tina, Vickey or Valencia were home and he told me "they're not here." I said to myself, I know that he knows I can hear them in the house talking. As I hesitated to leave, he locked the screen door and said, this time with a deeper voice; "I said they're not here ! As I drove off, I laughed and said to myself, "man, I can only imagine what it must be like for anyone trying to date one of my cousins. I understood that he was only being a protective dad considering that I was somewhat rough around the edges during my teenage years. Funny incident. He was a good man. 🙏 RIP Big Fella. Richard Herold
