Leonard LARSON Obituary

Age 85

On February 16th 2022, our much loved father, grandfather, great grandfather and brother passed away. Lennie was born in Williston ND on March 20th 1936, to Theodore and Mabel Larson. He married the love of his life Jean Weyrauch in June of 1958, and they were married for 52 years before Jean's passing in 2010. They lived in Anchorage AK, where they raised their two children, Laurie and Larry. Lennie worked as a Roughneck and Motorman in the oil fields of North Dakota and Alaska. After retirement, Lennie and Jean moved to Spokane to be closer to their family. Lennie was a skilled wood worker who enjoyed sharing his many creations with family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Kenneth of Ray ND and wife Jean. Lennie leaves behind daughter Laurie Ferrell (husband Pat), Mead WA; Son Larry Larson (wife Stevie), Anchorage AK; Granddaughter Lindsey Schwaderer (husband Dave), Spokane WA; Great grandsons Luke and Jack Schwaderer (who were the light of his life); Brother Donny Larson, Olympia WA; and sister Lila Volz, Fairview MT; as well as many family members and friends who loved him deeply. A private burial service will be held at a later date. Please visit Lennie's memorial and leave a condolence at www.holycrossofspokane.org.
