Lenart, Gary Edward, age 62, of North St. Paul, MN, went to ride the streets of heaven on April 15, 2024. Born on July 16, 1961, Gary grew up in Northeast Minneapolis and graduated from Irondale High School in 1979. Gary's passion for motorcycles, music, and handyman skills were unmatched. He was known for his quick-witted, dry humor and unexpecting soft, caring side.
Survived by daughter, Harley Lenart, and sons Jesse (Leah) Fiskewold and Colton (Zyla) Lenart; grandchildren Coleton, Owen, Cooper, Chloe, and Carmen; and granddog, Van Helsing. Also survived by siblings: Nancy Lemon, Susan Schlegel, John Lenart, and Rachel Zezulka; along with many nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by wonderful parents, Stanley and Alice Lenart.
Funeral services will be at 2PM on Saturday, April 20, 2024, with visitation one hour prior to the service at Washburn-McReavy Hillside Chapel, 2610 19th Ave. NE, Minneapolis. Interment will immediately follow the service at Hillside Cemetery. Please join us for "happy hour" afterward at Adagio's Pizza Factory, New Brighton, around 4PM to help us pay tribute to Gary with his loved ones.

I was Gary's next door neighbor. Will miss not hearing your Harley. He was a nice neighbor for 20 years. To Gary's family, so sorry for your loss. -Susan Nicolai -
