Leo Tamble Obituary

Tamble, Leo Joseph, Jr. Age 89, went to join his sweetheart, the love of his life, Jenny on Valentine's Day. Leo was a devoted husband and loving father and grandfather and is survived by nine loving children, Carole (Bill), Tom (Karen), Jack, Julie, Donna (Pat), Joe (Leslie), Barbie (Howard), Jim (Jeanmarie), Charlie (Jeff); plus 23 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren. Also survived by sister, Dolores Paulson; sister-in-law, Millie Oczak and brother-in-law, Robert Fournelle. Some of dad's distinguishing attributes include: Minnesota's longest standing Ironworker (67 years), served proudly as a Navy Seabee in WWII, was an avid Twins fan and marveled at the new stadium, conservationist and never missed a fishing or hunting opener in 70+ years, not quite a scratch golfer, enjoyed his numerous family gatherings and was the life of the party, relished going to Lake Lizzie, Lake Osakis and Lake Mille Lacs. Dad was one of a kind with a quick wit, a great sense of humor, a consummate jokester and loved by all!!! Visitation Thursday, 4-8 pm at Wulff Funeral Home, 1485 White Bear Ave., St. Paul as well as Friday from 9-9:30 am. Mass of Christian Burial Friday, 10:15am, at St. Casimir Catholic Church, 934 Geranium Ave. E., St. Paul. Interment Fort Snelling National Cemetery. WULFF 651-776-1555
