Mr. Leenerts had lived on the Leenerts homestead near La Prairie until 1944 when he and Mrs. Leenerts moved to Golden. He had served several terms on the La Prairie High School Board. While he had been under a doctor's care during the past three years he had been active and his sudden death was unexpected.
