Grover Holley Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Family-Funeral & Cremation - Pensacola on Dec. 2, 2025.
Grover "Leon" Holley Jr., a devoted father, grandfather, and friend, passed away on April 26, 2025, at the age of 72. Born on August 8, 1952, in Montgomery Alabama, Leon lived a life defined by hard work, love for his family, and a deep appreciation for the simple joys of life.

A skilled craftsman, Leon proudly owned and operated Holley's Cabinets. His work was more than a business, it was a reflection of his pride and commitment to quality.

Leon was happiest when he was surrounded by his loved ones, sharing laughter with his children and grandchildren. Often, memories were made around a pond fishing with the kids. His legacy of love, perseverance, and humility will live on through those he leaves behind.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Doris McLaughlin and Grover Leon Holley Sr. and his beloved daughter, Bridgette Holley.

Leon is survived by his life partner, Cindy and his children: Jeffrey Holley, Jennifer Klesch, Brody (Kristen) Holley, Blake (Destiny) Holley, Braxton (Tristyn) Holley, Bryce Holley and Brayden Holley. He was a proud and loving grandfather to 11 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild: Lauren, Jacob, Emily, Brant, Payton, Kashton, Kayson, Joshua "JB", Jackson, Briar, Kimmery, and Johnny "Jack Jack" (great grandchild).

Leon's memory will be carried on in the hearts of his family, friends and all who had the pleasure of knowing him. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Visitation will be held Friday, May 9th, 2025, at 5:00 with services at 6:00, Family Funeral and Cremation. 5627 N. Davis Hwy. Pensacola, FL 32503.
