Leo LeRoy Sexton was a very hard worker all this life; and he loved to spend his spare time with his grandchildren; he made a point to attend all of their sporting activities when his health allowed him to go out. He always thought of others first. He enjoyed his children, gardening, and the squirrels that he fed everyday. He was a fighter to the very end. He made us all laugh and cheered us all up when we were down. He will always be in our thoughts, every minute of everyday. He was the great man, a great father, and a great friend. I know because this wonderful man was MY DAD!

LEO LEROY(ROY)SEXTON WAS ALWAYS MY ROCK FOR 47 YEARS. HE WAS ALWAYS THERE WHEN NEEDED 24 7. HE WAS HONEST AND TOLD YOU ABOUT RIGHT AND WRONG. OF COARSE HE WAS ALWAYS WRONG UNTIL WE FOUND OUT DOWN THE ROAD YEARS LATER THAT HE WAS ALWAYS RIGHT. HE'D SAY DON'T COUNT YOUR CHICKENS UNTIL THEY ARE HATCHED.HE WAS MY BEST FRIEND,DAD,AND MENTOR.
I MISS OUR DRIVES AND TALKS A FEW TIMES A WEEK. WE ENJOYED THE SEASONS AS THEY CHANGED FROM FALL TO WINTER. WE HAD OUR FAVORITE TREES IN THE FALL AND ENJOYED THE SITE OF DEER IN THE WINTER. WHEN SPRING CAME HE CHERISHED HIS BACKYARD SQUIRRELS THAT WERE PREPARING THEIR YOUNG ONES. WE STILL TAKE CARE OF THE SQUIRRELS IN MEMORY OF DAD. I WILL ALWAYS HOLD HIM IN MY HEART FOR CARING FOR MOTHER,MY BROTHERS,SISTER AND I. MEN LIKE DAD ARE HARD TO COME BY.
SO ENJOY THE PRECIOUS MOMENTS EACH DAY IN LIFE AS YOU WILL CHERISH THEM FOREVER. MISS YA DAD.... LOVE CINDY
THIS YEAR I WILL CELEBRATE MY 30 YEAR REUNION AND IT WOULD OF BEEN DAD'S 50 YEAR. SO CELEBRATE.
