Misc. Notes
There are 2 Findagrave memorials for Leonard. As far as I can tell, the “correct” one is the one naming Woodlawn Cemetery as the grave site. The other one references the site where his first wife, Lillian, was buried, and that gravestone even has his name on it but without a death date. The memorial naming Woodlawn Cemetery does not currently have a photo of the grave (as of 09-SEP-2020). [1498, MEMORIAL# 46180403]
