Leonard was born at Open Brook, north of town, Friday, May 10, 1903, to Alfred and Minerva Ostrander Studley and attended the local schools. He was employed at Duke Center and Rock City until going to Eldred to reside a few years ago. Married to Miss Cora Reese, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chauncey Reese of Austin, Pa., Aug. 6, 1927, she survives with one son, Carroll Richard, aged 6 years, who with his parents mourn the loss of a good husband, father and son. He was taken ill several months ago and received treatment in the Kane Summit Hospital for a time. Blood transfusions were given him and the best that science and skill could offer were provided, yet nothing could save the young sufferer who was brought to the home of his parents on the Brooklynside nine weeks ago, and where death ensued. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock at the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Rev. E. Jones Burton officiating with burial in Fairview Cemetery beside his young son Tommy Gene, and a young brother, Freeman Lester Studley, who passed away 21 years ago, at the age of 8 years.
