Kathy:
I am uncertain if I knew him personally, however his name is quite familiar.  Whatever did he pass on from as I see he was only 51yoa.

  I'm am sorry to report that Siouan list member Tom Leonard passed away on Saturday, March 22.  He was a longtime member of the Native American Church (Ponca Chapter) and an avid student of the Ponca and Osage languages.  He was also a longtime friend, and I've always known him to be helpful and generous with his time, knowledge, and sharing materials.  His adopted Ponca family will honor his wish to be buried next to his adopted mother, Josetta Rush, in the Ponca Indian Cemetery.  The funeral will be Tuesday, March 23, at the Ponca Indian Baptist Church.  A full obituary can be read in today's Ponca City News at www.poncacitynews.com.
