Michael "Mike" Leedom
January 13, 1955 – February 2, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Michael Leedom, age 70, on February 2, 2025, in Murray, Utah. Michael was born on January 13, 1955, in Dover, Delaware, to Elma Mitchell and Ralph Leedom.
He is survived by his beloved daughter, Cheyenne Leedom; granddaughters, Bentley and Gracie; sisters, Martha and Ruth; brothers, Tim, Tom, and John; as well as many cherished family and friends. Michael was preceded in death by his parents, Elma and Ralph, and his sister, Beth Ann.
Mike had a heart of gold, always putting others before himself. He was known for his unwavering generosity and was the first to lend a hand, no matter what the circumstance. Whether as an electrician or a car hauler, Mike was a true "jack of all trades," always mastering any task with determination and skill.
Above all, Mike had a love for life, and his passion for gambling was no secret. He often dreamt of hitting the big jackpot and had a playful, adventurous spirit that he carried with him every day.
Michael will forever be remembered for his kindness, his sense of humor, and the impact he had on all who knew him. He will be greatly missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.
A celebration of his life will be held later. Details can be found on his daughter's Facebook page in the upcoming weeks.
