Leon "Leont" Jerome Dickerson Obituary

Leon “Leont” Jerome Dickerson was born in Louisville, Kentucky to the late Sidney and Margaret Wheeler Dickerson. He accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior and was a member of Historic Calvary Missionary Baptist Church. He attended Shawnee High School and graduated from Valley High School. Leon chose to work in the security field and was dedicated to keeping people and places safe. He worked for several different companies including the L & N Building, the Court House, Churchill Downs and Transit Authority of River City, where he retired from. He was often recognized outside of work due to working in these locations and was very proud of that fact. In 2002, Leon received the “Black Achiever Award” for his outstanding commitment to the community. He was a “free spirit”, huge Dallas Cowboy fan and a true University of Louisville fan. He was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Virginia Radford. Leon leaves to cherish his sweet memories, his wife of 31 years Pamela Dickerson; children, Angelina Petty (Roderick), LeAndra Huckleberry, Kayla Dickerson, Gary English, Jr., Janeen English, Jason English, Sr.; siblings, David Glenn (Gwendolyn); Sandra Edmonds, Annette Mullins; nineteen grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, church family and friends. Visitation: Wednesday August 4, 2021 at 10:00 AM followed by service at 12:00 PM. Both services will be held at his church, 1368 S. 28th Street. Louisville, Kentucky 40211. Interment: Green Meadows Cemetery. We are honored to be of service to the relatives and friends of Mr. Leon Jerome Dickerson. Please join us in keeping the Dickerson family in your thoughts and prayers.
