In Loving Memory

Tewolde, Leonard Francis

November 9, 1985 - June 25, 2025

Leonard Francis Tewolde was called to his heavenly home on Wednesday, June 25, 2025. He is survived by his mother, Anna; father, IOB; brothers, IOB Jr. and Braden; and sister-in-law, Jasmine.

Leonard was known for having one of the kindest, most caring, loving, and goofiest souls you could ever encounter. He lit up every room he walked into with his positive energy and quick wit.

He was a passionate history enthusiast, a proud St. Louisan, a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and the biggest St. Louis sports fan you’d ever meet – especially when it came to the Cardinals. Leonard could tell you everything there was to know about the past, present, and future of the team.

He was a beloved grandson, son, brother, uncle, cousin, and a dear friend to so many.

Services:

Visitation will be held at Kutis Funeral Home, 2906 Gravois Ave, on Saturday, July 5, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a memorial service to follow at 3 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to The Trevor Project at www.thetrevorproject.org.

Condolences
