Leonard was born on January 29, 1931 on the family farm near Neidpath, Sk. He attended Fern Valley School and was united in marriage to Evelyn Berg on October 4, 1952 at the Country Church of God near Hallonquist, SK. He worked at Treen Packers in Swift Current and farmed with his dad at Neidpath, eventually taking over the family farm. Leonard loved hunting, fishing, trapping and being outdoors. The one thing he hated most, was going to school. He learned to curl when Neidpath had a curling rink. He cherished all the time he spent with his grandchildren, looking forward to their visits. Leonard's health began to fail, and he fought courageously to stay with us, but that was not to be. He was a great husband, wonderful father, a fun grandpa and great grandpa and a special friend to all. We love you and always will.
