He was preceded in death by two sisters Patricia and Louise.

Leroy was a faithful servant to the Lord for most of his life. He gave more than 35 years as a Commander of the Royal Rangers, Central Latin District. He ministered to many boys and young men at their annual Pow Wow throughout the years. He helped lead these boys to the Lord and helped teach them to be Christian men. He was a passionate man about his service to his church. He was a wonderful family man and loved to fellowship with his lifelong friends.
Growing up Leroy was an athlete in high school playing baseball, basketball, and football all of which he lettered in. He remained an avid sports fan throughout his life. You could always see him in his easy chair with "The Game" on. Golf, basketball, baseball, college and professional football. He spent his last day on earth enjoying a Denver Bronco victory!
He loved the outdoors and summers spent at the Pow WoW's camping with The Royal Rangers. He was an active member of Healing Waters Family Center as an usher, deacon, board member and most recent as a Sunday school teacher.
He was a hard worker and good provider, with many jobs during his lifetime. He was kind to everyone he encountered and had an amazing sense of humor. He will be remembered by all, as he left a part of himself in each of our hearts.
