LEON MEEK Obituary

Whether You Knew Him For 10 Minutes Or 10 Years He Was A loyal friend For Life. Always There To Lend A Hand To All From Plumbing, To Moving, Car Trouble And Helping A Friend In Need. "NO" Was Not In His Vocabulary. A Talented Gifted Bike Builder And Mechanic, Not To Mention One Mean Cook, And Probably One Of The Funniest Guys You Have Ever Met. There Wasn't Anything He Couldn't Do. He Adored His Family Which Always Came First And Was A Loving Father. He Is Irreplaceable And Our Hearts Are Broken. Survived By Wife Christa, Sons Jeston and Clayton, Daughter Ashton and Brand New Son-In-Law Jacob. A Huge Extended Family Of Relatives Including Sisters Aleta (Terry) Dupuis, Lin Faltinowski, Brother and Sisters-In-Law, Mother In-Law, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nephews, Nieces and So Many Friends, Too Many To count. Preceded In Death By His Father Leroy, Mother Cam and Brother Danny. Our Lives Will Never Be The Same, But Are So Much Richer For Knowing Him.

Christa, Jes, Clay, and Ash: you already know what a special person Leon was. He touched all of our hearts in so many ways. Zanny remembers so many special times with him, hanging out with Leon when he was just a little guy; Nicholas remembers how much Leon made him laugh; Linda remembers first meeting you guys, and how Leon helped her look like a vampire for a Halloween party with Scott; Scott remembers so many things, like going out to eat with Leon, and betting which one of them the waitress would think was the youngest! We are all trying to keep the good times in the forefront so that we can try to figure out how to possibly deal with the loss of him. Thankfully, there are ONLY great times to remember with Leon. We love all of you, and are keeping you in our prayers. With love from the Rice family.
