Nancy C. Leonard, 81, Pulaski, passed away peacefully Monday, Dec. 22, 2025, at Country Villa Assisted Living in Pulaski. The daughter of Klerus “Nick” and Dorothy (Krause) Uelmen was born Jan. 25, 1944, in Shawano.
Nancy was a graduate of Bonduel High School. On Sept. 18, 1965, she married Dennis Leonard at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Bonduel. Nancy had worked as a clerk for many years at Pick ‘n Save and for several years as a hostess at Marc’s Big Boy.
In her early years, she enjoyed bowling. Nancy was an avid Packers fan and enjoyed an occasional trip to the casino. She was a hard worker and was always willing to lend a hand. Most of all, she enjoyed spending time with family and friends and was always the life of the party.
