Leo was a good cook, he could take anything and make a good meal out of it. He loved cooking his Mexican foods. I used to try to watch him cook and try to learn how he was fixing things, but he was such a fast cooker and had everything going together and trying to keep up with him was hard , and trying to figure out what spices he’s putting in, but you had to be fast to keep up with him. 

Leo cooked quite a bit, he cooked things for the kids for their dinner.He always cooked Angela’s food separate .  He would wait till she got home at night to cook her food so it would be fresh. 

Everybody had their own different taste and what they liked, but Leo would fix it their way even if it took him, making several dishes. 

I will certainly miss you Leo

ps: and your cooking 🌶️

Rest in peace 🕊️🙏❤️

Love you 

I met Leo when I was just a teenager, and from that moment on, it was nothing but family love. Even though we may not be direct in-laws, it never changed the love I have for Leo and his family.

One of my greatest memories is of him is his amazing cooking and his sense of humor. I remember spending a few holidays up in Charlotte with the family. For one of my birthdays, he made me a tres leches cake that was so delicious. Memories I will always cherish.

It is heartbreaking to know he is no longer here, and he will be deeply and greatly missed. I will forever keep Angela and the kids in my heart and prayers. Love yall 

Rest in peace, Leo ❤️

I remember when I moved to Houston, TX you showed me REAL Houston. Funny how coworkers became fast friends, that quickly became forever family. You are truly missed and will always be remembered! “Look into my eyes…” remember that? LOL!

Uncle Leo was so funny, I remember years ago when we had a snow day and he took me and all of my cousins down the street to play in the snow and go sledding. He always made suchhh good food and made dull moments turn into super fun ones!!! He was very welcoming and Sweet, he would play basketball with my little brother and we always had so much fun on sleepovers, and my little sister enjoyed when he would play Roblox with her, he was full of joy and love. We love you uncle Leo ❤️ you’re now in gods home watching over all of us,  forever in our hearts and our lives. 

I am so truly sorry -Angela -for both you and the babies.

 I know it was very clear that Leo always wanted to be there with you all , I knew him to be very dedicated in that regard and the times we visited ,  a comical and light hearted guy. 

As long as I can remember -past our teenage years -you guys were always together, my heart is very heavy and sad for you and the kids.🙏💛

I know he will always be treasured , loved and remembered 💛

Please always remember our time here is but a very short trip and our soul is eternal through God. 💛

Y’all are in my prayers and will always have my support !

Man Leo put me on to real tequila!! Yeah, the one with the worm in it! He let me crash in his house when I didn't have anywhere to go. He was fucking solid!! Past tense is crazy. Thought for sure the universe would let us cross paths on this earth before this. I'm bringing a bottle when I get there bro. Rest easy💙💙💙

Twenty three years ago I gained a son Leo. Twenty three years was too short. You loved my daughter with every fiber of your being, and it showed. You spoiled her so much, and it will be impossible to fill your shoes .You left her five beautiful children, and a carbon copy of you in Ethan.  Each one of your children possess so many of your qualities, that will live on forever.  You left an imprint in our hearts.

Love always, your other mother 💔

How do even describe what it was like to have a brother like Leo.  He was such an amazing brother to me , always cared what I had to say . He gave the best hugs and always knew when I needed his special bear hugs . He showed me no matter what life gives you , you always have the love of family. What made me really love him even more was how he treated my sister . He was so devoted to Angela.  He loved his kids and made sure everyone knew they were his world. Brother you will be missed everyday. I love u too much 

It’s so hard to find the right thing to say. I’ve literally known Leo for most of my life . Angela, Roxy, Cilla , Kyle and Tito , we all grew up together with him. We shared the good, the bad and the ugly but we would trade anything to have him back here with us . This is a horrible loss to everyone who knew him. He introduced us to so much in life that I couldn’t even begin to name it all. He was our forever piece of Texas and Mexico ! He will be greatly missed and never forgotten 💔❤️‍🩹❣️
Was a great person a great father every time I seen him he was spending time with his children the last time I talked to him.. he was wanting to come and help me detail cars.. rest in peace bro.. Smith family .. pray to God give them strength to get through this 🙏🙏
To the family. Myself and My family send our condolences. We pray that god gives you great strength and comfort in your time of bereavement. For the short time I got to be graced with his presence he was a genuine and very caring man. He loved his family and was a joyous person to be around. No more pain and suffering. God has gained a great angel.

I will miss Leo's humor and honesty. He was truly big hearted and expressive and often made me smile and laugh when we talked.  Angela,  I know you will miss your husband, and I also know you will see him in each of your beautiful children whom have so many of Leo's amazing qualities.

Love

Charlene
