Leon Washington Persons was a family man who loved his girls.
He was a master mechanic and machinist of the old school. Early in his carrier he worked as a mechanic for the Sumpter Lumber Company at Electric Mills. After they closed he was self employed as an auto mechanic but could build any part he could not buy.

I once ask Leon what is the first automobile he worked on. He smiled and said, "A Model T Ford"
