Leo was born on October 4, 1943 in New Gulf, TX to Leobardo and Carlota Garza. He was raised in Angleton, TX and moved to Freeport in 1963. He was a retired Pipefitter/Job Planner from Dow Chemical. He was a generous man and gave without asking for anything in return. Always striving to be a better man, he became a Master Mason in 1991 and was a member of the Velasco Masonic Lodge #757. He donated his time as a youth baseball coach in Freeport and also served as President of the Freeport Little League. He loved firing up the pit for a barbecue, gardening and working on projects around the house but nothing replaced the time he spent with his grandchildren. Leo is survived by his wife of 53 years, Mary Garza, sons: James, Patrick (Mary Bel) and Rodney; grandchildren: James, John Michael and Alexis (James); Leah, Thomas and Timothy (Patrick); Kirsten, Tristan and Kamryn (Rodney), as well as numerous nephews and nieces.
