Danzeisen, LeRoy    
 
LeRoy Danzeisen 
Services: Tues., Feb. 21, 11:00 a.m. 

Graveside services will be held in Greenlawn Memorial Park, 3700 River Blvd., 
for LeRoy Danzeisen, 74, who passed away February 14, 2006. Pastor Fred Fies 
and the Kern County Veterans Association will officiate. Just like a hero, my 
grandpa had a humble beginning. He was born to two farmers, Julia and John 
Danzeisen in Canada making a family of 10 and one more later to come. He moved 
to the states in 1936. Disputing what the sound the letter "A" makes, with 
school teachers, he acquired his GED in Minnesota at the young age of 16. He 
joined the U. S. Army due to a broken heart. While serving 23 years making the 
rank as high as Master Sergeant he participated in 2 wars and even fought the 
battle of "Heart Break Ridge" in an armor division. He also did three tours in 
Germany. On January 20, 1960, his heart was later mended by a beautiful woman 
named Loucetta Harrison and her two children Frank and Betty. Again he went 
above and beyond the call of duty. This time it was as a loving husband, a 
kind stepfather and a prolific grandfather. His legacy and values will live on 
through his family and friends. He was truly a great man and will very much be 
missed. Visitation will be Monday, 12:00 - 9:00 p. m. Greenlawn Mortuary
