Jeffrey D. Leonard “Lenny” Obituary (1969 - 2014)

Lenny passed away unexpectedly in the mountains he loved. He was born in American Fork to awesome parents who he thought the world of. He had a wonderful childhood filled with great memories in the outdoors. Lenny graduated from American Fork High School in 1987. He was a journeyman plumber. He married Angie May in 1989, later divorced. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, boating, cooking and being with friends and family. He looked forward to his Alaskan fishing trips with the guys. He loved being on the water and spent a lot of time at Lake Powell and Flaming Gorge with friends. He was a gourmet cook and enjoyed sharing his homemade recipes with friends and family. He loved being a father and was very proud of his Haley Bug. He was the best dad and was exceptionally good with children. He was always bringing home stray and abandoned animals (and sometimes people) who he treated like royalty, providing them with excellent medical care and accommodations. He had an infectious laugh and a huge heart, which he shared with many. He is survived by his daughter Haley, parents Doug and Lynn Leonard, Sister Jan (Tim Hibler), nieces Savannah and Cheyanne, nephew Austin, heart grown daughter Hanna, and dog Beaver. You will be loved and missed and forever in our hearts. I love you Papa Bear/Daddy and will miss you. We love you Son! I will miss you bro.
