Harry Francis LeRoy
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Harry Francis LeRoy, age 62, who departed this life unexpectedly at his residence in Chardon, on May 12, 2025.
He was born July 29, 1962, in Painesville. Harry was the beloved son of David LeRoy and Ann Carol Martin Rogers.
He was preceded in death by his parents; and his cherished wife of 29 years, Mev LeRoy, whose memory he carried with him throughout his life.
Harry was a devoted father to his two daughters, Lindsey and Leah, and an extremely proud grandfather to his four grandchildren, whom he adored and spoiled immensely. His family was the center of his world.
He enjoyed hosting and entertaining at his house that he owned with his girlfriend, Lori Wetzel, who brought much love and companionship to his later years. Their home was known to be a hub of warmth and laughter where everyone could gather and spend time together.
A dedicated professional, Harry spent his career in the tree service industry, where his strong work ethic and leadership skills shone brightly.
Outside of work, he had a passion for cooking, often preparing his loved ones delicious meals and providing warm hospitality. He spent countless hours tending to his yard, always making sure it was a beautiful and peaceful space to relax.
Harry was a huge Cleveland sports fan and proudly supported his teams through thick and thin. He also enjoyed the thrill of gambling and visiting casinos, where he created many fond memories with friends and family.
He had a soft spot for animals and his beloved dogs were his constant companions, bringing him happiness and comfort in his daily life.
Harry is survived by his daughters, Lindsey (Adam) Green and Leah (Matt) Tezak; his four grandchildren, Caden, Weston, Lyla and Charlotte; his girlfriend, Lori Wetzel; his sister, Sherry (Jerry) Chafin; his brother, David LeRoy Jr.; and many nieces and nephews and a host of friends and family who will greatly miss his sense of humor and nurturing spirit.
As we remember Harry, let us celebrate a life filled with love, laughter and cherished moments. He leaves behind a legacy of kindness and selflessness that will continue to inspire all who knew him.
Family and friends are invited to pay their respects and honor his life on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, with visitation from 5-7 p.m., at Burr Funeral Home, 116 South St., Chardon.
Rest in peace, Harry. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
