Amy R. Leemon

April 28, 1945 - April 23, 2022

Amy Ruth Leemon (Lichtenwald), of North Fond du Lac, passed away at Willowdale Health Services in New Holstein on April 23, 2022 after a stroke. She was 76 years old. Amy was born to Walter and Elsie Lichtenwald on April 28,1945 in Fond du Lac. She grew up in North Fond du Lac, graduating from Winnebago Lutheran Academy. She married Roy Leemon on June 19,1966. Amy and Roy moved numerous times to places including Hawaii, California, South Africa, Michigan, and Illinois before finally retiring back to her hometown. Amy's hobbies included reading, playing piano, and writing. She posted many book reviews on Amazon and enjoyed entertaining her Facebook friends with letters written from the point of view of her cat, Rex. She served on the Library Board of Trustees at Spillman Public Library as well as volunteering her time there. Her house was filled with books and music, and she could think of nothing better than spending her time with a cup of coffee, a good book, and a cat on her lap. Survivors include Amy's husband Roy, daughter Penny, grandson Brett, his wife Meredith, and granddaughter Christa. She was preceded in death by her parents Walter and Elsie, her sister Rosie, and her son, David. A private memorial service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Spillman Public Library at 719 Wisconsin Avenue North Fond du Lac, or the Humane Society.
