Leon was preceded in death by his wife, Dolores (“Darlene”), as well as his six brothers and two sisters.
He will be lovingly missed by his children Jim (Kathy) Kenyon, Amy (Kurt) Paffhausen, and Keith (Teresa) Kenyon; grandchildren Michael (Diana) Kenyon, Jodi (Scott) Kime, Holly (Edwin) Vasquez, Heidi Kenyon, Kassandra Veal, Chad (Sara) Paffhausen, Stephanie Paffhausen, Amber (Sulaiman) Chalabi, and Seth Kenyon; 17 great-grandchildren; and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
Leon was a loving, caring husband, dad, and grandpa who loved people and playing cards - living his life to the fullest. He always made time for family. His one-room schoolhouse where he attended school and later lived, was his pride and joy. He was everyone’s friend and always had a smile.
A Memorial Service will be held at a later date.
In honor of Leon and in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Hospice of Michigan.
The family welcomes memories and messages in their guest book on line at www.cookcares.com.
