Known for his infectious smile and effortless charm, Leonard was a man who lived life with grit, humor, and heart.
Born on December 29, 1938, Leonard was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Nancy Luethye, who passed on July 1, 1990. A proud U.S. Navy veteran, Leonard carried his sense of duty and discipline into a successful career with PepsiCo, later becoming a business owner of several A&W restaurants. He also traveled across the country working on the pipeline and embraced a lifelong spirit of entrepreneurship. His deep faith in Christ defined him more than any title ever could.
Leonard approached life with curiosity, conviction, and a spark that drew people in. He was never short on stories, always quick with a smile, and unafraid to take risks in pursuit of a meaningful life. His absence will be felt deeply, but his spirit will live on in the laughter he inspired and the adventures he chased.
