On Oct. 28, 2024, at the age of 97, Glenn LeRoy passed away peacefully at his Manor Park home in Midland, Texas. He was born Nov. 30, 1926, in Great Bend, Kan., to parents Roy and Lillie LeRoy, who preceded him in death, as well as three sisters Elverta Yahne, Donna Clark, and Shirley Stephenson.
Glenn was survived by his wife of 63 years Lorna LeRoy; sister Marylin Cooper and her husband Gary Cooper; son Dan LeRoy; daughter-in-law Bethany LeRoy; two adoring grandchildren Madison LeRoy and Parker LeRoy; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Even though Glenn spent the last 13 years of his life in Texas, his heart always belonged to the Kansas farmland. Making it most fitting that he will be laid to rest and returned to the Kansas soil that he loved for all of his life. Glenn’s graveside service and burial will be held at the Great Bend Cemetery on Nov. 27, 2024, at 11 a.m. A memorial service will take place in Midland, Texas, in the Kelview Heights Baptist Church chapel on Dec. 2, 2024 at 10 a.m. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a charity that supports children in need to honor Glenn’s compassion for children who are less fortunate.
