No matter what is said it seems almost impossi-
ble to give a man such as Leo Garfield proper
recognition for a lifetime of countless
achievements.

What can be said about a man who never had
the title "President of a congregation,' or
monuments named after him, but in his own right
achieved for others, as well as for his family, far
more than many who are honored.

From the time Leo was a young child in
Poland, he was considered the breadwinner for
his family of seven children (all of whom were kill-
ed in the Holocaust). He even made enough
money at that time to make a wedding for one
of his sisters, when his parents could not afford to.

During World War II, Leo was married and had
three children ; after losing them to the Holocaust
his fighting spirit compelled him to go on and
become a big entrepreneur in order to survive the
war. From baker to grocery store and Delicatessen
businesses in Israel, then waiter, and cook, to fabric
store owner and men's and ladies' apparel
businesses, to real estate in America. The list goes
on. Along his path of achievements he helped
countless friends and family members by also put-
ting them into business. Being that Leo was a
financial wizard, friends and family always sought
out his business advise as well as crucial life deci-
sions. In a sense, he was somewhat of a guru. So-
meone that many would come to and rely on for
good advise. He is perhaps a "silent hero," always
helping others (especially his family), but never tak-
ing any of his deserved credits. It is so unfair ; so
how does a man like Leo Garfield receive proper
recognition? He always did things in a silent man-
ner, but what he did always amounted to
achievements, success, and rewords.

Leo Garfield„ (Isek, as his beloved wife Hen-
ny called him), all your wisdom and good advise
throughout the years have allowed three genera-
tions of families to live very comfortably today. You
were in fact the true definition of a survivor, and
a real silent hero. You will truly be missed, and your
wisdom will be a great loss to the future. You were
first and foremost a man of your word — a man
of honor. It is this steadfast quality that will be the
lasting legacy to your children and grandchildren.

Leo was also a contributor to the B'nai B'rith,
Shaarit Haplaytah, Yeshiva Beth Yehuda and
Holocaust Memorial Center.

May your memory always live on, and be
cherished.
We shall always love and cherish you!
Henny, Inez, Lee and Dolcy
