William (Bill) LEO

Deepest sympathy to Inez for the loss of her husband Bill. She has had to bear more than her share of sorrow in recent times

Condolences to the Leo family on the sad passing of Bill. An absolute gentleman with a deep banking knowledge, which he was always so willing to share. May he rest in peace.

Rest in Peace Bill, I loved working with you

I knew Mr Leo when I worked with him in Talbot Street in the 1980's. I remember him as a true gentleman, kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable. My sincere condolences to all his family.

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Leo, he was a true gentleman. I met Mr. Leo first when I worked in the Beehive in 1994. Mr. Leo's regular visits over the years to collect Hilary for the weekends caused so much excitement and joy for Hilary and everyone else in the Beehive. My sincere condolences to Inez, Hilary and all the Leo family at this sad time.

Sincere sympathy to Inez and all the Leo family on the sad passing of Bill. .May his gentle soul rest in peace
I worked with Bill in 34 College Green for 17 years and during that time learnt everything I know about banking. Bill was the most patient and kind person you could meet. He would spend any amount of time explaining any problem that arose. treating staff and customers alike in a helpful and kind manner. It might have helped that we were both from Tuam but we did not know each other prior to joining the bank. It was my privilege to have had him as my manager

Dear Inez, sending my deepest sympathy to you and all the family on the sad news of Bill's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Rest In Peace Dear Bill, a truly lovely person. 🙏

Very sorry to hear of Bill's passing (always knew him as Mr. Leo) and send my sincere condolences to his family. I worked as his secretary in 34 and Talbot Street and apart from a few initial difficulties in deciphering his handwriting, I always enjoyed working for him. He was a truly compassionate and humble man who tried to help all who came into his office. Very grateful to have known you Bill. May you travel gently to your next destination.

I first met Bill Leo when, as a penurious trainee accountant, I applied to open an account at 34 CG.
He was kind, and understanding. He approved an overdraft to allow my wife and I go on our honeymoon. Over the years we met regularly to review the account. He made meticulous notes and he was a good advisor. He helped us with our first mortgage. Exceptionally, when I was on business in Yemen, stranded because my credit card was not accepted, Bill set up complex arrangements at short notice to ensure I had funds. I always think of him as a special gentleman and an outstanding Bank Manager. My deepest condolences to his wife and family on the loss of such a fine man.

Condolences to all the Leo Family on the passing of Bill. He was a very kind and lovely man. May he rest in peace.

I am very saddened to hear of Mr Leo’s passing. He was my Manager in Talbot St branch many moons ago and I have very fond memories of him from that time.
A very interesting and intelligent man who treated everyone with fairness and kindness. A true gentleman who always cared for his fellow man. My condolences to his wife and family.
Rest in eternal Peace, Mr. Leo.

Dear Inez, l am sad to hear of the death of a very good friend, Bill. He was held in the highest esteem at College Green. Your kindness in supplying substantial breakfasts prior to setting out for lessons from the master himself at Grange Golf Club on weekends has never been forgotten. Please forgive my non attendance at Bill's funeral. I am confined to home now. Mary joins with me in offering our condolences.

Sincerest condolences to Inez and the family. It’s a shame we don’t have more human beings like Bill was, truly a privilege to have known and worked with him . Rest with God Bill.

Deepest sympathy to Inez,William, Hilary, Maurice, Michael and
extended Family on Bills passing.
A half century has passed since we soldiered together in 34 College Green (The National Bank). I consider myself to have been extremely
lucky to have benefitted from Bill's tutelage. Always supportive of staff
and generous with his time looking after Branch customers.
Mr Leo's "bike" is now parked up and his"pipe" quenched. Treasured
memories indeed. May Bill rest in Peace.
