David "Randy" Leon Sr.

David "Randy" Leon Sr., 66, went to be with his Lord Jesus on August 19, 2026. Born in Shreveport, Louisiana on December 27, 1959 to the late Anthony Leon Sr. and Wilma Chambliss Leon. He was a longtime resident of Logansport, Louisiana.

Randy was an accomplished electrician whose hard work carried him through a career marked by skill, reliability, and pride in doing things the right way. Those who knew him understood that his steady hands were matched by a generous spirit—one that showed itself in quiet compassion, practical help, and a kind-hearted way of being with others.

A man of faith, Randy loved Jesus and lived with a sincere devotion that shaped the way he treated people and the way he moved through the world. He also had a gift for building—taking joy in creating anything from mother-in-law suites to plantar boxes—and he found genuine satisfaction in all things electrical, always drawn to the craft and the challenge.

Randy was married to his wife, Laurie, for 23 years, and he valued the life they built together. He adored his dogs and chickens, and the simple, grounded rhythms of home. Living in the woods was his dream, and he cherished the kind of days that made that dream feel close: fishing, sitting on the front porch, and riding his tractor.

Even in a life defined by diligence and care, Randy made room for laughter. His humor was unmistakably his own—especially in the “Leonix” vocabulary he invented, punctuated with sayings like “Bess you eva” and “OTM = on the money.” In those familiar phrases, friends and family heard not only wit, but warmth—the sound of Randy being Randy.

He will be remembered with respect, gratitude, and enduring affection.
