We wish to extend our deepest sympathy to Leo's family. We're sorry we can't make it to the service for Leo. Bill enjoyed visiting Leo at Bayside and hearing his many stories. The people up in heaven are in for a treat when Leo entertains them with the tales of his interesting life and family.
To the family of Leo Kivela. Please know you are in our prayers. Leo was a wonderful person who will be greatly missed. His memory will live on in all of our hearts.
Dear Rick, Marie and Courtney - Please accept our heartfelt condolences. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Dear Kivela Family: I really wish I could be with you Tuesday to express my condolences in person. Although I am not able, please know that you have been and continue to be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I have been so blessed to be a part of your family and to have known Leo. I cherish the memories I have. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. Much love, Amy
I was sorry to hear about Leo's passing. He and Eleanor were such good family friends. Leo went many times to see my father when he was not able to drive much anymore. He really looked forward to Leo's visits. And even though I have been away from the area for quite a few years already, Leo always recognized me and came over to say Hello. My prayers are with your family. God Bless.
To all the Kivelas and Grentz's
May your memories of Leo and the care and concern of your friends and family help you through this difficult time. Leo was a great guy, and I'm glad to have known him.
Love Debbie and Brian
Alan, sorry to hear about you Dad. We had some good times at the Republic, he was a good guy, take care, Bucky Innerebner.

Good memories of earlier years with a great neighbor who cared about others. He will truly be missed.
