Phil, Sonia, Kim and Craig. I am saddened to hear of Leon's passing. Many memories of us growing up since we were young and our Dads (Neil Bowling)were working at the power board. Visited Leon on different occasions with Kim and a couple of weeks ago at Elizabeth R. My deepest sympathy to you all. Jocelyn Bowling
I was deeply saddened to learn of Leon's passing. Throughout my 52-year career in the electricity industry, Leon played a significant role in shaping my professional journey. His influence was profound and left a lasting impact on both my personal and working life. Over the decades, I have accumulated countless memories involving Leon—some joyful, others challenging. Each experience has contributed to the rich tapestry of my career and personal growth within the industry. Rest in peace, Flash.
Condolences to the Webby family.
