Had no wife or children. Leonardo was shot by Leo Ramone, initially Leo had tried to kill Luciano first, simply because he was the youngest and he wanted to see Leonardo suffer. However, Leonardo tried to save his brother's life by blocking the gunfire in a noble fashion, by standing in front of Luciano. Marco, shot Leonardo, then walks off to have a cigarette.
