I think LeRoy's mayorship is an honorary title in the retirement complex where he lives. Well at 96 he deserves all the accolades he can get. LeRoy was born March 24, 1911 in Temple Hill, Barren County, Kentucky. He started his working life as a school teacher but decided civil service employment was better so he took the test then walked a mail route in Glasgow for thirty years. The exercise didn't do him any harm despite having a mild heart attack in 1957 that slowed him down for awhile. LeRoy couldn't immediately recall what year his wife Margaret died and they had a daughter who has also died. LeRoy says he has four grandchildren and he enjoys woodworking.
