LeRoy worked for V-Mountain Construction as a truck driver and was able to continue in his work with them up until this past Easter. He was a very dependable employee and was well-liked by all his peers. His absence will truly be felt by all of his co-workers. LeRoy loved being in the great out-of-doors. He was an avid Nascar Racing enthusiast. He also enjoyed watching baseball and enjoyed the stillness of a serene lake, as long as he had his fishing pole with him.

The goodness this man exuded will be missed by many friends, however, none will miss him more than those who called him, "husband", "father", "grandfather" and "brother". Funeral services will begin 6 p.m. Friday, April 24, at Owens Livingston Mortuary, White Mountain Chapel, 320 N. 9th Street in Show Low where visitation will begin one-hour prior.
