my FAVORITE UNCLE LEO

- My favorite uncle, my Mom's brother Leo, passed away this week. He was a character and always full of life and laughter (and some pretty good jokes). Because Michigan is still under quarantine, they aren't able to have a funeral so we can all properly say goodbye... so this morning, I'm remembering and lifting up one the brightest lights in our family tree...

Since my birthday, 4/25/20... I’m doing a daily FLOG (farm + vlog) here on CZcams. I’m doing my best to make something and share it… EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. (...or as often as I can with a working farm to run, tv shows to make and a sweet little six-year-old to raise).
This is FLOG #25.

Uncle Leo was a comedian, what great memories to have.💚
Sorry to hear about the passing of your favorite uncle Leo. 🕯 RIP 🕯💎🌹 ~~ Port Huron! it's not too far away from my place. Go there every so often. The Blue Water Bridge across the St. Clair River links Port Huron, Michigan, and Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. A very beautiful area of Lake Huron.
Love your shows
Blessings sent to you, Rory & family. I am so thankful we have hope beyond the grave....
This made my heart smile! Thanks for sharing this with us Rory. Sending y'all my condolences for your Uncle Leo 💜 God Bless y'all🌹💜🌹💜🌹

Uncle Leo reminds me of my family, too precious! We lost our Daddy on Apr 22 and have not been able to have a memorial service for him yet..... it's a difficult time.We know he is with our Mum and Jesus.....
💜
Sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing memories.
I use to spend a lot of time with my nephews and niece when they were children. I use to tell them each separately they were my favourite. They use to bantered among each other that they were my favourite , then one Christmas it came up and they all came to me and asked who was the real favourite? I said you all are my favourite. Lol. Thanks for sharing .
Awwee..the memories of my older relatives we have lost over the years...a few like your uncle I loved dearly...
Love the blog love watching these videos. I am so sorry for your loss of your uncle I hope things get better love you take care and again so sorry for your loss
Condolences on the loss of your Favorite Uncle Leo, it breaks my heart when people lose someone special. Big Hugs from Ontario Canada. :'(

So sorry about your uncle. It seems he was a gem. How blessed you were to know him and have video to view when you are missing him.
Oh my stars! What a character! He reminds me of my Dad, always with a joke or a story. I bet your Uncle Leo never met a stranger either. My condolences to your family.
Oh Rory, what a beautiful tribute to your favorite Uncle Leo! Yes, I can only imagine how fun it was to be with him, as he was always finding the lighter side of life....always making people laugh. I offer my condolences, and ask that will always be comforted by all the wonderful memories to cherish forever. Thank you for sharing Uncle Leo, he reminded me of my Uncle Pete...he was a character as well, and so loved and cherished. We are also from Michigan...blessings!
So sorry about your loss. Thanks for using the bleep. He looked like a nice guy. Love the background music for that little snippet of golf.
I loved it and smiled while watching. He seems like he was a salt of the earth kinda guy as I believe you are. Sorry for the loss of your Uncle Leo even though sorry never suffices. 🖤

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. You are so lucky to have him on film. Priceless. 🙏
Mr. Feek, I am sorry for the physical loss of your beloved Uncle Leo. Just in that little snippet I could tell he was a character! But, I know that he lives on because he is safely tucked in your heart. Memories of those special times together will bring you comfort, and make his earthly passing a bit easier. He will live on through stories, and tributes like this Flog. And, the best thing (yes, there can be a best thing even in sadness) is that in your Faith, you know where he is and who he is with and the times they are enjoying.... and, that one day.. IN GODS TIME.. you will see Uncle Leo and all of your precious loved ones gone before once again. Until that day may you smile broadly remembering his twinkling eye and antics. May God keep you wrapped in HIS Loving Arms. Condolences to you and all the family. Blessings to you all. *LK*
Thank you for sharing...what a hysterical fellow...my condolences...Rory...having faith is challenging....again thanks for sharing yours.....be blessed have a wonderful day
I'm from South Haven and Grand Junction Michigan. And so sorry to hear about your uncle. Prayers for your family
I'm sorry for the loss of your uncle. Sounds like he was a wonderful person.
Sorry for the loss of your uncle.
Uncle Leo you made me happy😂❤
"Favorite Uncle Leo"... Everyone should have one. Mine was favorite Uncle Leon (called "Bo", my Mom's big brother), held me up high in his mighty arms when I was four years old to witness my Dad's entire funeral in 1954. Buried him about twenty yards away from Dad two years later when I was six after his truck slid onto the train tracks when neither he nor the train could stop in bad weather, but his two sons, my cousins, thankfully survived.
Rest In Peace Uncle Bo, Rory's Uncle Leo, and all our favorite relatives, the ones who really taught us the meaning of "family".
Thank you Rory for sharing Your Uncle Leo with us 😊
What a truly amazing way to remember your favourite Uncle. Is it wrong to own up to the fact I was laughing at his joke. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Lol he was a character. So sorry for you're loss. RIP Uncle Leo.

Condolences to you and your family Rory on the passing of your uncle Leo, from Ireland.
Very sorry for your loss! What a funny Uncle! I am sorry you were not able to get to Michigan (a lifetime Michigander here) but he knows you loved him.
So sorry for your loss. May he R.I.P. such a shame families can't be together to say goodbye during this pandemic. But our loved ones are with our Lord now how can we ask for anymore. Amen. We shall all be together again one day. Amen. Rory thanks for sharing your Amazing life with us. We would love to one day hear a poem your Grandma wrote. Wonderful her talents were passed down to you. ❤🙏
😊 Aw... Thank you for sharing with all of us... What a Neat Tribute to your Favorite Uncle 👍 I am so very sorry for your loss, Rory. Asking GOD to bless you and yours with the Peace & Comfort that only GOD can 💙🙏💙
Oh my! He was hilarious! The heavens are laughing it up with him!
I think we all have a uncle that stands out over the others to us. My Mother's brother was mine. I like a lot of the same things he did and he would always help me with things. He tought me how to play the guitar. He was one of the best guitar players I ever heard. I never have got no were near as good as him but that's not his fault. He was the last one to go on the side of the family and Daddy was the last on his side. Both was in their 90s when they passed away. Know how it is to miss someone that close to you.
Stay safe and God bless.
I'm sorry to hear about your favorite Uncle Leo. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this most difficult time. BTW: Rory, your filing system is a lot like mine, lol. OMGosh "golfing" -- too funny! That reminded me of my sweet Dad (so missed)! Thank you for sharing!
I had a Uncle Leo too, lost him a few years ago. How amazing as a young man, he saved his family from the fire. You might of not had your mama and we might not of had you Rory! Love your Flogs and your mantra ~ to live each day as it’s your last. ❤️ to you and Indiana!
I look forward to seeing and meeting Leo one day in heaven thank you for sharing your life with me 👍🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It is always tough to lose our loved ones. Especially ones that we admired. Sorry about you losing Uncle Leo. I am down to one aunt on my father's side and two aunts on my mothers side plus mom.
I think everyone needs an Uncle Leo in there life❤️
Uncle Leo was a bright light in your families life. I'm sure he made everyone laugh. Nothing better for the soul💖
I'm sorry for your family's loss. Uncle Leo is in heaven with your mom and Joey. He is reunited with God and his sibling lost in the fire....He's probably sharing his gift of humor too! God bless those in heaven right??? Haha. Those we love never really leave us...the bonds never fade...God bless
Oh my goodness gracious...your Uncle Leo was a real fireball! I'm so very sorry for your loss, Rory...he was a true treasure. Thank you for sharing that video...he cracked me right up!

Thank you for sharing memories of Uncle Leo. I'm sure I would have loved him had I had the pleasure of meeting him. May he always rest in God's loving arms.
Loved all the ‘bleeps’ Rest Well Uncle Leo
I'm so sorry for your loss. My grandmother came from Michigan in a covered wagon in 1914 she was born in 1910. So she was not very old. They came here to Missouri and settled and raised horses. Last name was Schoonover. My great grandmother was a Cotton. In Boston we have a pew in an old church with our family history on it. Wish I could see it one day. I my did when she was about 17. I love history. Thanks for sharing your flog.
Oh My! My face hurt from smiling so hard while watching the video of Uncle Leo. Very funny man. What a joy and pleasure to sit on the porch and listen to the stories. So sorry for your loss. The music you choose for Uncle Leo's clip was perfect.
Bless your heart Rory. I had an uncle Leo whom I Loved dearly. I miss him as well.💞
Those beeps warmed my heart, I just want to say thank you for sharing this little glimpse into your life, and uncle Leo’s life.
What a character! Big holes are left by big people. I’m sorry for your family’s loss 🙏🏻
I’m so sorry for your loss sweet Rory

my kind of man, just wanting to enjoy life and make people laugh
Such a special tribute, thabkyou. Awesome
So sorry for your family loss! Prayers
Hugging you in my heart.
So sorry for your loss. Memories are great to have a time like this. God bless you and your family! !!!
Thank you for sharing your life, and those amazing stories and times of your memories, of times gone by lovely...
😢😢. Having a sad moment watching the tragedy that once again has hit our country. Thinking on the Watts riots and the beating of a black man by the cops on the streets of L. A. And of course of Vietnam protests I’d hope to never see again. Mentally exhausted I then said it should be Flog Day 👍👍👍👍. Like you I had a favorite uncle who always said I was his favorite too. He taught me to draw and sketch and to see the world and it’s simple beauty. Tragedy struck him and his life changed and had to move far away. His best friend then became my favorite uncle #2. Tho he was fighting a horrible disease and I would then visit him. When he tragically died too soon the last visit by favorite uncle #1 made to Calif. was so welcomed. Sketchbooks in hand and a big box it was the best week I longed remembered. When he passed he gifted me with THAT sketchbook and so much more than my heart could hold. Books and published stories and fading photos and so many letters written to his very lifelong friend.....uncle #2. After he’d died he kept writing once a week to that special friend but addressed it back to himself. Odd? And among his last writings there was a letter tho unfinished addressed to me. Just saying I WAS his favorite niece and person for real. Just like you all those treasured memories come flooding back whenever I see then open his treasured box. Mmmm good memories never end they live forevermore. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very sorry for your loss sending prayers.
