PASSING OF Leonard O. / Aug. 2, 2021

• It is with a great sense of sadness that the RRVCC announces the passing of Lifetime member Leonard O. Leonard contributed to the RRVCC in numerous ways over many, many years. He was a kind man with tremendous enthusiasm for the hobby. In recent years his encouragement for new club officers and youth events was greatly appreciated.
