:yt: HOMEGUARD :yt:

























"El Sabado 7 de Junio, 2014, un pequeno contingente de pescadores pertenecientes a Hobie Kayak de Southern California, y amigos queridos, se unieron todos en harmonia de kayakistas para ofrecer sus respetos finales a Leopoldo "Leo" Terrero, amigo Venezolano. A continuacion hay un video de unas escenas en La Jolla justo antes del mediodia en la que resulto ser un hermoso dia, donde le rendimos homenaje a uno de los nuestros en La Jolla. Los restos de Leo estan ahora junto a los Mossbacks locales descansando eternamente en las aguas del Pacifico, y Leo queda marcado para siempre como uno de los Guardianes de La Jolla.
La esposa de Leo, Georgette, estaba en escena esparciendo sus cenizas en el Oceano Pacifico que Leo tanto amaba, junto a todos nosotros incluyendo Jerry, Richard, RedSled Team, Gabe, Rick, Nic y crew, mientras su hijo Christian surfeaba en la tabla de Leo por una ultima vez...
Descansa en Paz Hermano."

What a special and beautiful tribute to honor your beloved friend, husband, and father this way. I can only imagine Leo is smiling down from heaven as you all came together to honor his life. Very nice indeed.

I hope one day, when my time comes that my friends and family will do something similar for me. God bless.

I very sad to learn of Leo's passing, he was always there to chat with on the water and on the beach. I loved the guy! You'll be missed Leo.

I'm releasing my next fish in your honor to swim the worlds waters and take you along for the trip.

Rest in peace my friend.

Thank you Wade for the amazing video. I was really sad that I couldn't find you guys that day, this video made me feel like I was there, thank you. Leo will always be remembered every time I go out on the Ocean and take a sacrifice from our Jewel.

Ouch!... I first met Leo fishing with the Kid... I remember thinking without judgement, "I don't think he is originally from around here!" Not many guys running around in speedo's fishing LJ.
We became friends on the water over the next couple years. He was always friendly, upbeat, and always willing to assist another fisherman.
I always remember hearing him yell "Hey cowboy Bill!!" as he would see me out on the water. I was thinking about him just last week.

I feel sad as I have not talked to him in about a year, and still have his # in my cell phone.. I wished I would have called just to say Howdy...

Wade, :you_rock: ; what a nice tribute!
Goodbye Leo... I only knew you for a few years, but they were good years and awesome memories!

Today is four months since Leo's passing and so I wanted to take moment to thank you all for your postings, he was much loved and I am sure he is humbled as am I and my family.

His Guest Book at La Jolla Light will be online permanently, so if any of you would like to post something or light a candle, here is the link:
