Leonard F. "Lennie" Kuhn

Kuhn, Leonard F.” Lennie”, age 81 of West Carrollton, passed away peacefully on Saturday, February 20, 2021 at Ohio’s Hospice of Dayton surrounded by his family.

He was born on December 12, 1939 in Dayton, OH, the son of the late Louis W. & Margaret (Jehle) Kuhn. Mr. Kuhn was a retired Master Plumber for Local #162 Plumbers & Pipe Fitters and Donnell Plumbing Co. with over 41 years of service.

If you met Lennie, you loved Lennie. He never met a stranger. He was the life of the party, and he knew exactly what to say to make people laugh. He was a loving husband, father, brother, friend, and grandpa. Lennie was one simple guy. He loved his family & friends, Busch Light, cigars, and wood working. He was the most hardworking and generous man. He would make 30 different birdhouses to “sell”, to only then give them all as gifts to the ones he loved. On Tuesday’s he enjoyed breakfast at Holly’s with his breakfast buddies and then they would come back to Lennie’s house and sit in the garage for hours talking and laughing.

Preceded in death by his sister Judith Sponsler, brother-in-law Thomas Sponsler and sister-in-law Jewel Kuhn.

He is survived by loving wife of 58 years Patricia (Marsh) Kuhn, his daughter Dana Chillinsky and husband Mike, his son Chris Kuhn and wife Christene, brother Bill Kuhn, sister Joyce Wellmeier and husband Tom, 2 granddaughters Claire Chillinsky & Alex Kuhn, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.
