Robert Louis Howell wrote: With the passing of Leo Garibaldi one can honestly say the glory days of Atlanta wrestling are part of another era. Many men who contributed are still with us but Leo Garibaldi was a force as a booker and referee that shaped and formed the very best of the Atlanta territory. He did it in Texas, Florida and LA as well. GA owes him a debt “unrepayable” in creativity, taste and knowledge. RIP
