Leon Laverdure Obituary
Leon was born in Great Falls on January 28, 1973, to Ralph and Carmen (Whiteford) Laverdure. He completed his GED and worked as a laborer in construction. He was a proud member of the Montana Little Shell Tribe. In his spare time, he loved painting, riding motorcycles, and creating model cars. He was an all around jokester and always ready with a joke or two.
Leon is survived by his long-time girlfriend, Laci Olszewski; four sons, Leon Smith, Charles and Troy Laverdure, and Seth Mullins; parents, Ralph "Puppet" and Carmen Laverdure; sister, Judy Laverdure; five grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother, Ralph "Lil Puppet" Laverdure.
