Up to the Challenge
“It’s always a challenge to keep a shop going,” offers Leonard. “You must never be complacent, learn as much as you can about defending it and create a lot of good will. Have as many people on your side as you can, and be sure to do a good job.”
Leonard has been married to his wife, Suzanne, for 36 years, and they have two sons, Walter and Sean. In his free time Leonard says he has one normal hobby and one not-so-normal hobby. For the past 32 years, he has shown and judged exhibition poultry all over the U.S. and Canada. He completed a five-year apprenticeship to become a judge, and is a member of the American Poultry Association and its Hall of Fame. He also lets his competitive side out by racing his Nissan 350Z and his Formula V cars on Wednesday nights and the weekends.
