DEERING, NH:  Kenneth Earl Leidner, December 19, 2017. 

I was given the gift of life, now I must give it back. This is hard, but I have been a lucky man, led by an adventurous existence. Serving in the 173rd Airborne Brigade, teaching elementary school and taking part in so many exciting adventures. I wouldn't change a thing. 

My love of life was contagious and those who knew me, knew love.  When I received word that I would be leaving this world, I decided that I would leave the world on my terms, I kept on smiling. 

I passed peacefully on December 19th at my home in Deering NH. I am survived by my beautiful wife, Deborah, and amazing sister, Jane Besz. I leave behind many family and friends, that I loved so dear. 

I now Rest In Peace, Love and Honor. 

–Peace Out- 

Services will be held at the convenience of the family. 

The Holt-Woodbury Funeral Home & Cremation Service Hillsboro, NH is assisting the family.
