Gary Leazer
Gary Monroe Leazer, 71, of Faith passed away on Tuesday, May 26, 2015 at Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte surrounded by his family members after succumbing to complications related to his heart. Gary was born April 29, 1944 in Salisbury, a son of the late Hubert Monroe and Pauline Ruth Miller Leazer.
Gary was a 1963 graduate of East Rowan High School; he received an Associate's Degree from Salisbury Business College in 1965. He completed several technical degrees throughout his life at Rowan Technical College (today known as Rowan Cabarrus Community College). Gary worked for Bamby Bakery. He also owned his own service station on Jake Alexander Blvd., was a salesperson for Rowan Distributing Company, supervisor at M.A.N. Trucking Company, and retired from Yellow Freight after 18 ½ years of service.
Gary enjoyed being involved in his community. He was a member of Shiloh Reformed Church in Faith where he held positions as a Deacon, Elder, Superintendent of Sunday School, and Youth Leader. He was also a member of the Pairs and Spares Sunday School Class.
For the Town of Faith, he served as a member of the Faith Fire Department, Faith Jaycees, Faith Auxiliary Police and served as Judge of the Faith Election Board. During the annual Faith Fourth of July Celebration, he managed positions with the fireworks, prepared the BBQ shoulders, sold tickets for rides and entertained the locals. Gary loved fishing with his family and telling family stories and countless jokes. He also enjoyed spending time with friends, family and, especially, his grandchildren.
In addition to his parents, Gary is preceded in death by a brother, Donald Ray Leazer.
