Obituary of Leo Martin Druken

In loving memory of Leo Martin Druken, age 76, it is with deep sorrow that we bid farewell to a cherished brother, uncle, and friend. Leo passed away surrounded by love, leaving behind a legacy of warmth and kindness.

Leo was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Leo and Madonna Druken, as well as his sister Barbara Ann, brothers Hugh, Val, Donald, and sister-in-law Ruth. He will be dearly missed by his surviving siblings: Pat (Edith), David (Bev), Victor, and Bridget (George) Foley. Leo also leaves behind sisters-in-law Frances, Rona, and Mary, along with a host of nieces, nephews, and a large circle of extended family and friends.

Throughout his life, Leo forged lasting bonds of friendship, none more cherished than his lifelong friend Gloria and her children Corey (Bethann), Shawn (Colleen), step-grandchildren Zoey and Max. His presence brought joy and comfort to all who knew him.

In memory's garden, we'll meet again,

Where time's gentle whispers softly blend.

Amongst the roses, under skies of blue,

We'll reminisce, dear Leo, of moments with you.

Your laughter, a melody, forever in our ears,

Your kindness, a beacon, to quell our fears.

Though you've journeyed beyond earthly sight,

In our hearts, you'll forever shine bright.

As we gather to bid our last adieu,

Know that our love for you remains true.

Your spirit lives on in every gentle breeze,

In every rustle of the leaves, in the whispering trees.

Rest now, dear Leo, in eternal peace,

May your soul find solace, may your spirit release.

Until we meet again in that garden fair,

You'll reside in our memories, forever there.
