Leonard Sadler

With great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Leonard Sadler at the age of 87. Leonard was a beloved husband, partner and best friend to his predeceased wife Nora for 63 years. Proud father to Charles (Linda) and Ronald (Annette). Loving grandfather to Jessie (Steve) Grainger, Johnston (Kelsea), Alyssa (Cole Shouldice) and Connor. Great grandfather to Benjamin and Ellen. Cherished son of the late Wilbert and Pearl Sadler. Predeceased by sister Dora Van Strepen (late Alphonse), Earl Sadler (late Mary Helen). Survived by his brothers Donald (Margaret) and Carl (Christina). He will be deeply missed by family members, friends and many nieces and nephews from the Sadler and Gardiner families.

Leonard was born and raised on a farm outside of Richmond. He became an Electrician and retired as an IBEW member. Leonard loved having fun. He enjoyed camping at McGowans Lake with extended family, fishing trips on the Big Rideau with his brothers, curling and bowling with friends, Old Time Fiddlers dances, playing cards, and cottaging on the Mississippi Lake. Their schedule was always full. Leonard and Nora loved spending time with their Grandchildren and were always available to babysit them. The highlight of the year for Leonard and Nora was spending time in Myrtle Beach, meeting new people, playing cards and walking the beaches.,

The family would like to thank the staff at Orchard Walk Retirement Community for the great care they provided over the last few years.
