"When I was about eleven years old, I remember a specific conversation I had with my father. I sat quiet while he talked about our family's Italian heritage and the origin of our last name, DeLeo. De - Leo: The - Lion. Simple enough, makes sense. What characteristics come to your mind when you think about the embodiment of a lion? I think of wisdom, respect, courage, beauty, strength, unity, and passion. Once I learned of this connection, I took a lot of pride in my last name and the characteristics it symbolized. To this day, I dedicate to live every aspect of my life with the heart of a lion."

Grandma Honey

Grandma had her double bypass yesterday.  The doctor said that the surgery went great and everything is looking good.  Grandma was moved from ICU this afternoon and working on her recovery.  When the nurse asked her how she was feeling, Grandma replied, "Great, I need to get ready for bowling on Wednesday."  We all love you very much Grandma and we are keeping you in our hearts.
