I’m so sorry to hear about Leroy’s passing. He actually saved my life on a canoeing trip at the family reunion many many years ago. His memory will always be a blessing.

Leroy you will be missed by so many. I have fond memories of you on the weekends picking Carey and Missy up from skating rink. Mom always talked about you and growing up at Brookland schools. You and her can visit now in heaven. Love and hugs too all the family!

Leroy was always so kind and nice to me whenever I ran into him at Lowe’s or Krogers where he worked . And even thow I was his x sister Inlaw it never mattered.
He was always the same to me he never had any animosity… always a smile.
Leroy you will be forever young for you never seem to age.
You will always be missed by all who ever knew you. You left a lasting impression and that was a gift you had.
Prayers for your family especially my niece Melissa Broadaway who loved her daddy so much.

There’s so many great things I could share about Leroy but the most important is how he cared for my sister, Melissa Henry-Broadaway. In addition, anytime I went to Kroger, I looked for him in produce since that was his area. He always had time for me, a sweet smile, and a hug. He was my stepdad for some some years. He held a special place in my heart. Thank you, Leroy, for being a good man and dad. See you again….
