my condolinces go to the whole family of Leroy Carlson i knew him pretty well he dated my mother a long time ago and he really ment alot to me he was a good guy. and he will be dearly missed
I am very saddened to learn of the passing of a great guy. I have known Leroy for about 20 years. We were together for 5 and he was like a father to my three girls, who now say they have lost their father and wished they would have been able to see him again. He has been in our thoughts always and has been missed, he will be missed ever more now. Our prayers goes out to his family which I know he was so close to. It’s with great sadness that the lord has to take away our loved ones to never see again, coping is hard to do, May you Rest In Peace my dear, much love. Jaylene
