Notes
After serving in the US military, and working for the US postal service, Leo worked as a Union carpenter and later as an independent contractor. Leo and Lawrence (His brother) were responsible for building many homes in the Green Bay area.
Leo worked for the US Postal Service for an unknown number of years (more than twenty less than thirty), but retired in 1960 as the Postmaster for West De Pere. I (Robert Vaessen) recall Leo telling me that "back then, you had to memorize every name and address on your route in order to pass the postmaster examination".
