We miss Leonard. He has been part of our family for many, many years.
Praying for you all!
I remember Leonard as a small kid on my grandpa Cavitt’s farm.. His step dad Lee, his mother Maggie, David, Lillie and Sherrie all chopped and picked cotton… Hard work for small children.. Rest in peace Leonard.
I am so Sad to hear that your brother passed away.
David and Cathy and family you are in my thoughts
And prayers and I know that Jesus our great comforter is with you as you grieve for your loved One.
Leonard Flatt was a great friend, if you were down, he always made me laugh! He was sweet and dear to all who knew him. He was very humorous, he had a great personality. We will miss and love you. RIP Leonard.
