This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, John Theodore Leonard, 67, born on July 7, 1944 and passed away on January 20, 2012. Please feel free to share stories, photos, or videos of your memories of him. We will remember him forever.
"Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path the Lord Jesus laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard his call, I followed Him and left it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way, I've found my peace at Heaven's gate.
If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy.
The love we shared, a laugh, a kiss - Oh yes, I know these things you'll miss.
But please do not be burdened with the sorrow that you feel,
Instead, rejoice with me as I feast with my Saviour for our very first meal.
Surrounded by His glory, you can only imagine what I now see. So lift up your heart and know God wanted me now... He set me free."

Christening celebration with your Famiy
Hiya, John.....
Your most loving & wonderful wife, son & family made it to our Aug. 3rd event.
What a joyful Christening celebration, as they were all so welcomed in our home. Rollie & Nina joined 'em, also. So very happy they had just as much fun & that Charlie were able to, finally, meet Chuckie & his family....especially, his 1st born, Baby Alena. We hope to get together, again, soon. Your grand-girls & grandson, Chas were so excited to be able to swim in our pool. They are such beautiful & adorable kids.
We felt your spirit with us & very much missing you.
Just your BFFs, always thinking of you with Prayers & ♥....
Capt. Morgan Stan & Angel Nor
