Trooper Leonard was one you could count on in the worst situation. He never complained about longs shifts and completed his duties with a smile. He was one of the funniest guys I ever met. Just when you thought things were bad 750 would crack a joke and give you that smile that only he could give. I will miss Jonathan as a co-worker and a friend. From the time this tragic event happened until you were laid to rest the gray never left your side and we never will.Sergeant Jamey KiddU/165 of the Kentucky State Police.
