The lighting of a Memorial Candle not only provides a gesture of sympathy and support to the immediate family during their time of need but also provides the gift of extending the Book of Memories for future generations.

Leo was known and admired by many of the early morning walkers in Arlington. We would see each other almost every day. At first, it was a simple “Good Morning” as we passed on the sidewalk. One day Leo stopped and introduced himself. We had a brief chat, and went on our way. After that, we exchanged greetings every morning. If we were on opposite sides of Mass Avenue, a simple wave was sufficient. If we were going in the same direction, we would walk together for a while. The conversations were usually brief but always interesting. He was enormously proud of his children and wanted to know about mine. After a block or two, Leo would say, “You walk faster than I, so don’t let me hold you up.” I would pick up my pace and move along. Although our acquaintance was relatively short, I valued his friendship. I looked forward to seeing him each morning. I admired his intellect and his courage. I think of Leo every morning when I walk through Arlington. And I always will.
