LeRoy was born May 24, 1933, the son and only child of the late Edwin and Elsie Mueller. He married his soulmate Gladys (Laun) May 23, 1953 at St John’s Lutheran Church in Mequon. LeRoy was devoted and committed to his family and in the earlier years he enjoyed camping and loved Crooked Lake, Hoefts Resort to be exact near New Prospect. He enjoyed it so much he bought a 32’ mobile home to keep on a permanent site and particularly enjoyed having Donnie Gierach Sr and his kids come and stay. He enjoyed camping in FL in August in early years and visiting Las Vegas in his later years. He graduated Cedarburg High married Glady from Shorewood High, enlisted in the US Marines out of high school and served in Korea, later he joined the American Legion eventually making the post in Grafton his and earning the honor of lifetime membership. He enjoyed remodeling and maintenance of the legion building and working on the buildings at legion camp. He didn’t have many hobbies but did enjoy sheephead, jartz, horse shoes, bowling, polkas and having a few beers. A favorite past time of his, was working with LeRoy Jr on houses and carpentry projects. He loved working in his yard and on the house, keeping it “perfect” along with hating maintaining the pool; although he enjoyed and embraced seeing people utilizing the pool, hosting many parties. As he aged he continued to enjoy his yard and embraced Gierachs Service Center and Towing as a second home. After Don Sr passed, Don Jr took LeRoy under his wing and welcomed him with open arms and the garage was still his second home. LeRoy’s best friends were the two Dons and Butch thank you guys so much.
