To the Ryan Family
I was saddened to hear of Leroy’s passing. I am glad I got the chance to talk to him a couple of times over the last few months. When I moved into manufacturing at Champion I could always rely on Leroy for good advice. As Brenda said he was truly one of the Champion Boys.
I remember he always talked about his family with love and appreciation. You were his first priority.
He will be missed. With sympathy

I am so sorry that my brother in law, Leroy, has been taken from his family and friends. He will be sorely missed by many. I have great memories of visits and parties and card games that continued on into latter years. There was food and drink and children laughing and so much to be grateful for. His memory will live on and he is now at peace and probably hanging out with his brother and brother in law that went before him. RIP Leroy
