Leroy Gienger Obituary

Leroy "Bud" Gienger, born July 17, 1930, passed peacefully on April 20, 2024, with family beside him. He was a native Klamath County resident for his entire 93 years.

Bud's stomping grounds were Chiloquin, Sprague River and Modoc Point where he was a rancher, a buyer and seller of land, in the timber industry and, in later years, antiquities. He was a busy man with many interests and a great love of his country and community.

Bud is survived by his children, Roy, Ilene and Nina Beth; his step-children, Sharon, Kathy, Susan, Rod and Kris; and his loving grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Bud was a fun, generous and knowledgeable man. He will be greatly missed and remembered. A celebration of his life is scheduled for Aug.17, 2024, at the Favell Museum, 125 W. Main St., Klamath Falls.

For those perhaps unaware. Bud had a very special & amazing woman standing by his side for over 4 decades. Her name was Pauline Gienger, his wife, & she died in 2021. Life is cycle of ups & downs, but they made it work quite well until close to the end. The Bud I knew, that took 5 kids in when they married, & for most of my life, was a good man.

To Bud's beloved family: Please know that our love and prayers are with you in the loss of your beloved father, stepfather, grandfather and great grandfather. Bud and his late wife, Ilene were long time antiques dealers at our Shows. Their many loyal collectors, colleagues and friends were always delighted to see them. Even when Bud got old, he was a real trooper, still setting up at the Shows with a smile on his face and a positive attitude. He will be deeply missed by all. Warm Regards, Carole Berry and the Staff of Twin Bridges Antique Productions
