He was especially proud when he received a patent in 1990 for a holographic display module for displaying machine status.

Dear Monica and Lorri,
I want to send along our condolences from the Drobek family. My name is Mark and my older brother Mike and my sister Michele have passed away. Mitchell and Marty are younger and only remember Leon from family gatherings where he played the accordion. Aunt Sophie and Uncle Mickey (my parents) have been gone quite a while now. Your father was one of my older cousins and I have fond memories of all of the cousins at different get togethers over the years. It seems to me he always had a smile on his face. I’m sorry he’s gone. (Diane send me this link.)
