Leonard Richard Krapf Sr., 90, of Temple, PA, passed away Wednesday, October 15, 2025 at his residence surrounded by his loving family.
He was the widower of Roberta Gail Krapf who passed away in December of 2016.
Born March 21, 1935, he was the son of the late John Krapf and Celeste (Teste).
Leonard was a graduate of Mastbaum High School in Philadelphia.
After graduating high school he got into the electrical industry. He then worked as a Union electrician for over 30 years and retired at the age of 62. When Leonard retired he started his own business called Ulta Log Home where he built cabins in the Poconos.
Leonard was an avid football fan. On Saturdays he would cheer for his Penn State Nittany Lions and on Sunday he poured his heart into watching his beloved Philadelphia Eagles. When he wouldn’t be watching football Leonard would be spending time outside camping and fishing. He loved his music and he and his wife Roberta could always be found on the dance floor. What brought him true joy was spending time with his family.
Surviving are three children: Leonard Krapf Jr, husband of Denise (Alexander) of Middletown, PA; Debora (Krapf) Weiland, wife of Robert of Langhorne, PA; and Denise (Krapf) Stephens, wife of Terry of Blandon, PA.
Also surviving are eight grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
