It
is with great sadness that today we remember Leonard Krusemark.
Leonard was a great man with a deep love for all people. He was
heavily involved in the Habitat for Humanity of Logan County. He
presented each new homeowner a family Bible at the house blessing
and often shared his words of wisdom gained over his 90 years of
life.
Leonard joined the angels on Friday, May 1, 2020.
His obituary is posted in today's edition of Lincoln Daily News.
