Leon was the son of Ralph A. and Wilhelmina (Rohde) Reese of Echo, Oregon. He was a 1944 grad- uate of Echo High School. During WWII he served as a radio mechanic in the Army Air Corps in France and Ger- many from 1944 to 1946. He was an expert in radar and radio theory and Reese was asked to go to England to help the British develop and work on their ship radar units. At one point in France he assisted with the radios on Gen- eral de Gaulle’s personal aircraft. When he returned home, because of his military training, he was awarded junior academic status at the University of Oregon. He fell in love with Dor- othy Farrens in high school and married her on Septem- ber 11, 1946, in Pendleton. They had a strong, inspiring 70-year marriage. He and Dorothy operated a family wheat farm west of Pendle- ton for over 50 years, while also maintaining a herd of registered Angus cattle. Leon served on the boards of Pendleton Grain Growers, Farmers Home Administra- tion, Oregon Angus Associ- ation, Echo School district and Peace Lutheran Church. He was the 1987 County Conservation Farmer of the Year. He also was the state president of the Ore- gon Angus Association and chairman of PLC and EHS. During their retirement Leon and Dorothy served together as Farmer to Farmer volunteers with Volunteer Overseas Cooperative Assis- tance in Eastern Europe. Leon was a lov- ing husband, father, grandfather and friend with a keen sense of humor and an infectious smile. He was gen- erous, selfless, and a man of deep faith exhibiting a quiet strength, gentle wis- dom, and love for life. Leon enjoyed many outdoor activ- ities including hunt- ing, fishing, golf and maintaining his garden. Leon is preceded by his wife Doro- thy, and brothers Jacob and Erwin Reese.
