He married the love of his life, Beverlee Ann Zgabay, on August 17, 1968.
Leon devoted 45 years to his career as a pharmacist, faithfully serving communities throughout the Brazos Valley and North Texas.

He especially cherished his grandchildren, whose smiles and laughter brought him immense happiness and pride.
His strong faith was a cornerstone of his life, shaping his character and his genuine desire to help others.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Beverlee; and his sister, Amelia Wearden.
Leon is survived by his daughters, Christina Pargac of Las Vegas, Nevada, and Nichole Koch and husband, Robert, of Prosper, Texas; his brother, Tom Pargac of Dayton, Texas; his sisters, Pat Wiederhold and husband Mike, and Margaret Tietjen, both of Bryan, Texas; grandchildren, McKenzie Koch, Justice Zmuda, and A. Zmuda; and numerous other loving relatives and dear friends.
He will be deeply missed but fondly remembered for his gentle spirit, his willingness to help others and the countless memories shared with loved ones. Though he has left this world, his legacy of love, faith and service will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
The family extends their heartfelt thanks to the nurses and staff of St. Joseph Regional Hospital for their compassionate care of Leon.
