Leroy A. Carron

Leroy A. “Lee”, “Slick” Carron, 73, of Biloxi, MS passed away Sunday, January 8, 2017 in Gulfport. Lee was a native of Bloomsdale, MO, a USAF Retired Vietnam Veteran and a retired U.S. Postal Service worker. He was of the Catholic faith. Lee loved life and lived it to the fullest. He was loved by all and he never met a stranger. Lee was a loving and dedicated husband, dad and grandpa. The greatest joys of his life were his grandchildren, family and friends. For many years he toured the U.S. on his Gold Wing Motorcycle. He was an avid golfer. Lee had a kind heart and loved laughter and fun. A person knew they were “in” when he came up with a nickname for them. One word that sums up Lee the best is “genuine”. He is preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Freda Werner Carron. Lee’s survivors include wife, Debra Johanson Carron; his daughter, Janna (Ronda) Carron Harper; his sons, Roy Carron and Carlton Anderson; his grandchildren, Ashton Carron, Baylor Blum and Christian Blum; his sisters, Rosie (Darrell) Plummer and Betty (Bob) Basler; his brothers, Clyde (Dona) Carron, Pete Carron, Larry (Jeanette) Carron and Donnie (Joyce) Carron; and many loving family members and friends. In lieu of flowers the family prefers donations be made to one’s favorite charity in Lee’s memory. A graveside service will be held at Biloxi National Cemetery, 400 Veterans Avenue, Biloxi, MS 39531, on Friday, January 13, 2017 at 9:00 am. The Howard Avenue Chapel of Bradford-O’Keefe Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
