A brother. A son. A father. An Uncle. And A friend. As Leroy Haas's nieces, we have decided to continue his legacy and help to support the loves of his life - Terra, Jake and Dawson Haas.
Leroy Clarence Haas was born on December 29, 1981 to the parents of Patrick and Mary Haas. He passed away on May 26, 2016 due to a medical condition that was seemingly unknown, a big heart. In reality, every person who was blessed enough to meet our Uncle Leroy learned quickly that his whole aura was built around that big heart of his and that goofy smile.
Uncle Leroy left the small town of Brent's Cove, NL, at the tender age of 15 to move to Manitoba with his big brother and his wife, Desmond and Shelley. In Leaf Rapids, MB, he met the love of his life, Terra Willis. However, just like a movie, Uncle Leroy decided that the best way to win Auntie Terra's heart was to pick on her. For anyone who knew him, he never went anywhere without his steel toed boots. So, Auntie Terra had to deal with this little, freckly, newfie boy kicking her everytime she walked by him. Eventually she learned that behind the rough exterior he portrayed, he had a huge heart and a love that he would give to her for the next 19 years. As the nieces that watched them grow together and love eachother, we can say that we can only dream to be loved by someone like Auntie Terra was loved by Uncle Leroy.
And then there were three...
Jake Patrick William Haas was born on September 17, 2004. Jake was, without a doubt, the light of Uncle Leroy's life. The pride and joy that you could see on this new father's face was indescribable. Jake had the pleasure of spending 11 years getting to know his father, and learning how to drive the quad, how to light a fire, how to take care of himself and his baby brother, and most of all how to respect and love the people around him.
And then there family was complete...
Dawson Dwayne Clarence Haas was born July 24, 2007. When Dawson arrived in the world, it was clear to everyone how much he looked like his Daddy. Moreover, in Dawson, Uncle Leroy found his partner in crime. Together they pulled pranks on Jake and Auntie Terra, told jokes and were always pushing the limits. Dawson spent 9 years looking up to Uncle Leroy, and with every day that passes, it becomes more clear that Dawson is truly his father reincarnated.
As his nieces, we are so proud to have had the pleasure of knowing our Uncle Leroy. He was more than our Uncle, he was our brother and our friend. We ask that you keep our family in your prayers as we mourne our Uncle and the baby brother of Desmond Haas, Joanne Haas, Terry Haas, Michelle Haas and Jason Haas and baby son of Mary and Patrick Haas. Most of all, think of the small beautiful family he has left behind when you read this.
Any donation, prayer or thought is more than appreciated for the future, well-being and care of Terra, Jake and Dawson Haas.
RIP Leroy Clarence Haas, December 29, 1981 - May 26, 2016.
