Leonhard, Ronald R. “Tick” (2 October 1944 – 14 September 2023) With Flag
Ronald R. “Tick” Leonhard, 78, of Medford, passed away in the evening hours on
Thursday, September 14, 2023, at his residence with constant care from his wife,
Leanne and her family members. Family members wish to express their heartfelt
thanks to St Croix Hospice team who lovingly assisted in Ron’s care during his
illness.
Ron lingered in his illness but was in a hurry to enter the world when he was
born in a house in Unity, WI to Ralph and Dorothy (Jewett) Leonhard on October
2, 1944. He attended school in the Colby School District. As a young man he
joined the United States Marine Corps where he served his country until his
honorable discharge on September 22, 1966.
He and Judy Dawson were joined in marriage and had 2 sons together. They later
divorced.
He met the love of his life, Leanne Reise, in May of 1976. They were married on
August 4, 1984, in Wausau. He worked many years for Distributors Warehouse,
later known as Carquest Auto Parts.
He enjoyed riding and working on motorcycles and in1985 he became the proud
owner and operator of a motorcycle parts shop Unity, WI. It was known by
countless bike enthusiasts as “Go Hawg Wild”. His customers became very close
friends, and many hours were spent in the shop just talking and spending time
together. His love of motorcycles brought him a great deal of pleasure and
forged many friendships, not the least of those were ones with the members of
the motorcycle club, “The Lonely Few”. The love of his Harleys was such that he
and Leanne even traveled to and from their wedding ceremony on the back of his “Hawg”.
Tick’s other great love were his pets. They were more like family members than
pets. Throughout the years Ron joyfully shared his life with many pets,
especially the dogs he loved. He cherished his time with them and mourned their
passing. His special shop kitty, Allie, reigned supreme in her kingdom of “Go
Hawg Wild’ and faithfully welcomed the Harley dudes at the door of the shop.
He was a lifetime member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Unity. As Tick struggled
with his illness, he became closer and closer to “His God” and wasn’t afraid to
share his faith with the people that entered his life.
Just as he was supported during his illness, he supported others during their
time of need. Especially his mother-in-law, Rita Reise (deceased Feb 22, 1997),
brother-in-law, Brian Reise (deceased Feb 25, 2021) and father-in-law, Charles
Reise (deceased July 18, 2023). Ron grew closer to them as they journeyed though
their illnesses.
Those who will cherish Ron’s memory include his loving wife, Leanne; his boys,
Scott (Trish) Leonhard of Spencer and Troy (Tamie) Leonhard of Auburndale; his
grandchildren, Gabriella, Aurora and Kambria and his siblings, Janet (Dale)
Block, Cathy (Kerry) Steinmetz and Greg (Jody) Leonhard as well as his faithful
canine companion, Sassy Mae Leonhard along with many other relatives, friends
and neighbors.
Family members preceding him in death were his parents, Ralph and Dorothy
Leonhard; his sister, Dorothy Eileen in infancy and his brother, Gary Leonhard.
Funeral Services will be held at 1 P.M. on Friday, September 22, 2023, at
Trinity Lutheran Church in Unity with Pastor Teri Hanson officiating. He will be
laid to rest at St. Mary’s Catholic Cemetery in Colby with full military honors
provided by Colby VFW Post 2227. Family and friends are invited to gather at the
church on Friday from 11 A.M. until time of service. The honor of pallbearer
belongs to Gage Plechaty, Lucas Leonhard, Bill Leonhard, Gabriella Leonhard,
Travis Schmitt and Rodney Kohl. Honorary pallbearers are Michael Baumgarten and
Nathan Steinmetz.
If desired, memorial contributions in Ron’s name can be directed to Trinity
Lutheran Church Food Pantry in Unity or to the Marshfield Area Pets Shelter
“MAPS” in Marshfield.
Ron’s arrangements are under the care of Life Tributes Funeral Home-Spencer. To
