“In loving memory of Leon Petty, May you be comforted by the love surrounding you. I won't forget my wonderful sponsor & friend of 33+ years, Leon Petty. A favorite poem of his was, The Death of Crazy Horse, by Lucille Clifton. Here are the last 2 stanzas: Father my heart Never defeated in battle Father my bones never defeated in battle Leave them at Wounded Knee and remember our name Lakota I am released from shadow My horse dreams and dances under me As I enter the actual world”

Robert Scott Blair wrote a sympathy message

“Thank you, Leon, for all you gave to me over 33 years as a good friend. Many phone calls wondering about the world and speaking about spiritual matters. So glad we shared about so many words and songs and spiritual ideas. You were patient and kind and compassionate when I really needed that from someone, and I will always remember you on your birthday and date of passing.”
