Walter Warren Leaman
Walter Warren Leaman lost his
courageous battle with pancreatic cancer Friday, October 27th
at 6:00 p.m. Walter was diagnosed August 2002 with Stage IV,
inoperable Pancreatic Cancer metastases to the liver then to
the stomach. This made Walter one of the longest survivors of
Pancreatic Cancer.
With family and hospice at his
side Walter’s final moments were very peaceful. Walter and
his son Don Leaman have owned Nu-Tek Lighting Solutions in Walnut
Creek for the past three years. Walter was well known in the
“Lighting Retrofit” world and always helped those to
improve their lighting with energy efficient products.
Walter’s real passion was
to play as much golf as a person could in his life. He organized
monthly golf tournaments for the “Bay Area Scramblers”
over the past 6 years.
Walter is survived by his children,
Don, Dennis, Cheryl and Kevin along with his grandchildren Kelsey,
Justin, Devin, Travis, Sean, Abbi and Ashley.
Walter’s greatest love was
his wife Jean, married for 18 years, she also enjoyed golf and
also works in the lighting business.
Walter will truly be missed by
family and those who loved him.
A celebration of Walter’s
life will be Sunday, November 19th from 2:00-7:00 p.m. at The
Bridges Golf Club. |
