Leon Canoy

My life has been an enjoyable one. I was blessed with a beautiful and good wife. She, in return, has blessed me with two good boys. They both finished at Mississippi State. The younger son graduated with honors in Electrical Engineering. They were both oustanding high school football players -- one a fulback, the other a quarterback.

I coached at Crystal Springs High School and served as the athletic director, head football and track coach, in addition to teaching four classes.

Since 1972, I have been in the insurance business.

My hobby is fox and coyote hunting. I also raise and train Walker Fox dogs. Two of my dogs have placed in the top ten in the nation, as well as winning the largest hunt in the nation (the International Fox Hound Championship).

I have had an enjoyable life and thank the Lord that our family is all in good health.
