Thank you for sharing Mr Leroy my family, the Eggins Family. Mr Leroy met me at the tender age of 3YO and he very quickly became my adoptive grandfather. His presence meant the world to me. I will miss him dearly. The Davis family will remain in my thoughts and prayers, and Mr Leroy will remain in my heart, forever. God Bless.
