Leonard Krise

Though Leonard has been gone for several years, his loving memory lives on at legacy.com and in my mind. I first began to recognize him when he worked at Sam´s Club. He always had a warm greeting and was tremendously helpful. Only when I read his obituary did I learn of his amazing life of service to others. Even though we weren´t close, my life is better for knowing Leonard. I really miss him.

From time to time, we all meet someone special, who makes you feel good inside and aspire to carry some of that person's kind demeanor along for yourself. Leonard was such a man. I think of him every so often as I recall my visits to Sam's Club where he worked. Many years ago, I began saving obituaries and articles about noteworthy accomplishments of friends and acquaintances. Every so often I enjoy getting them out and reading several, to remember the good times when I was with them or knew...

Worked with Leonard when he was a trooper are consider him a great friend. RIP Brother.

Dear Leonard,
I hope you know how much of a difference you made in everyone's lives. You were a joy to talk to and to work with. I remember when I'd see you with your sweet wife and when I'd talk with you two, I'd wish to one day be so in love like the two of you were. What a sweet couple. I also loved when you and my Grandpa would share stories of when you were both in Law Enforcement. You could brighten anyone's day or even week. God gained another angel and I'm sure you and Wynona are...

Sorry to read about the Krise family loss. We think of you and your family often. Ed and Mary Pat Dewitt

Leonard was such a wonderful person to be around at work. He always made jokes to lighten the mood and cared so much for people and their well being. He was always more than happy to help someone in need even when it wasn't his job and never complained once. A very amazing and positive person to be around.

To the Krise Family,

Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. We first became aware of Leonard during visits to our nearby Sam's Club, where he worked, apparently just to stay busy. We'd see him out on the floor and we found we could always count on his having something nice to say, not just to us, but to everyone he met. He would always willingly interrupt whatever he was doing, with a smile, to help us find our shopping items in the store. We barely knew Leonard beyond Sam's...

I worked with Leonard at Sams Club. He use to come to me when he wanted to call his wife and before he would call he would tell me stories about his different jobs his beautiful wife. To see the look in his eyes when he talked about her was the best feeling i ever got i am still hopeful that some day i will find a true love like they had

I worked with Leonard for a couple years when I was a demo lady at Sams Club. I always looked forward to seeing him and his welcoming smile. We would often sing Camptown Races together. RIP Leonard, you will be missed!!
