Leonard Schweter Obituary

Leonard James Schweter, 90, of Napoleon, Ohio, passed away on Thursday, March 5, 2025.

He was born on Dec. 4, 1935, to the late Herman and Eleanor (Gross) Schweter in Berea, Ohio. On Aug. 25, 2003, he married Sandee Wright in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Lenny was a parishioner of The First Presbyterian Church of Napoleon. He served his country proudly in the U.S. Army Single Core and was assigned TDY to Thule Air Force Base in Greenland.

Lenny worked for J.R. Holcomb Educational Materials for 29 years and worked up to the position of Senior Vice President of Operations.

He was an avid golfer, who achieved two hole-in-ones. Often he would be seen playing rounds with his many close friends.

Lenny would also spend his free time running. On separate occasions, he ran two marathons after the age of 55. His other hobbies included solving crossword and sudoku puzzles daily and was able to solve most Rubik's Cubes with no trouble.

He would always talk about his two amazing families and his wonderful life that he has lived. In the afterlife, he hopes that the golf courses are heavenly. FORE!

He is survived by his loving wife, Sandee; children, Mark (Wendy), Cynthia, Lisa, Georgianne (Mike); stepsons, Scot (Ivy), Tod (Adela), Rick (Dawn); 13 grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; sister, Judith; as well as several nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, Lenny is preceded in death by his five siblings.

Visitation will be held at the First Presbyterian Church, 303 W. Washington St., Napoleon, on Saturday, March 21, 2026, from noon until 1:45 p.m. A celebration of life will be held at 2 p.m.

In Lieu of flowers, memorials can be directed toward The First Presbyterian Church of Napoleon or Napoleon Municipal Golf Course.

Online contributions may also be left for the family at rodenbergergray.com.
