It is with heavy hearts we announce that Leonard (Len) Fleckenstein passed away on January 15, 2024. Len was a loving, caring, and thoughtful son, husband, dad, and grandpa. Len, the son of John and Maggie Fleckenstein and brother to Marlene (Barry) Knodel, was born and raised in Medicine Hat where he met his loving wife, Gaye. They had two sons, Benjamin (Jen) and Kristopher (Briana); three grandchildren, Hailey, Madison, and Ziggy; and two grandpuppies. He was originally employed by the Department of Highways and then went on to work for Volker Stevin until he retired in August 2012. Many may remember him from his interests in sports - fishing at Lake Newell, slow pitch and hockey in Medicine Hat, as well as golfing, often at Redcliff or Picture Butte. Len was predeceased by his parents and numerous aunts and uncles. The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church, 238 - 2nd Avenue NE Medicine Hat, AB T1A 5Z9, on Friday, April 19th, 2024, at 1:00 pm with Fr. Roque Pereira, Celebrant. Although the gesture is appreciated, flowers are gratefully declined. Condolences may be sent through www.saamis.com or to condolences@saamis.com subject heading Leonard Fleckenstein.
