Leide, blown away is all I can say when I saw you had left us. I met you at the Command Staff Institute in Douglas County in May, and while we didnt know each other well it was apparent what a great man you were as was testified by the others from Pueblo S.O. in the class. Drives home how it can be any one of us at any time. My salute to you and prayers for your family.
