Richard L. LeBlanc

Dear LeBlanc Family,
God bless you all. Richie was a good guy, and he left an amazing legacy with his great family. As you walk this earth, know that he will be smiling down on you all of your days. Praying for you all.
Rest Peacefully Richie,
Mrs. Jen Porcaro-Knapp

I clearly recall, as if it was yesterday, the day that Richie came to Miss McGlones first grade class at the East School as a new student. He was brought to the school by sister Betty (we 1st graders of course, at the time, thought that she was his mother). The year had to be about 1944; Richie and I became life-long friends from that moment forward. It was he, in fact, who introduced me by way of double date

I clearly recall, as if it was yesterday, the day that Richie came to Miss McGlones first grade class at the East School as a new student. He was brought to the school by sister Betty (we 1st graders of course, at the time, thought that she was his mother). The year had to be about 1944; Richie and I became life-long friends from that moment forward. It was he, in fact, who introduced me by way of double date in around 1963 or 64 to the girl who later became, and still is, my wife of 48 years. It was later, after our wedding, that my wife, Corinne and Richie were related by marriage thru the union of her uncle Ken White to Celia LeBlanc, Alphie LeBlanc's (Richies father) sister.

I very much regret that I heard too late of his passing and therefore missed the opportunity to pay my sincere respects of him and of his immediate and extended family of whom I also have many treasured memories. My sincere and heartfelt condolences to all.

In one of the stars I shall be living
In one of them I shall be laughing
And so it willbe as if all the stars were laughing
When you look at the sky at night.

Much Love, Annie & Kurt Lessenger= Aunt and Uncle to Ryan DelaBruere.
