Leendert Zonneveld (Leen)
June 22, 1941 – January 29, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Leendert (Leen) Zonneveld, who passed away peacefully at home in Beamsville, Ontario, on January 29, 2025, at the age of 83. Born in Hillegersberg, Netherlands, on June 22, 1941, Leen immigrated to Canada 0n his 10th birthday, growing up in Grimsby, where he built a life rooted in love, family, and community.
Leen was the devoted husband of Joan (Carpenter), the love of his life, with whom he shared an incredible 62 years of marriage-with whom he still always walked hand in hand. Together, they built a beautiful family, raising four children: Richard (Cheryl), Michelle (Jamie), and Judy (Robert). He was predeceased by his eldest son, Edward (Sheryl), and grandson Christian. A cherished Papa to Blake, Andrea, Cody, Kyle, Amanda, Spencer, Jacob, Tyler, and Emily, Taryn, Jacob and an adoring great-grandfather to Charlotte, Kyle, Jesse, Sophie, Austin, Jazmyn, Avery, Jaxon, Vince, Aria, and Rhys, Best friend to their beloved dog Kassie. Leen’s love for his family knew no bounds. He took immense joy in their lives, always offering his unwavering support, wisdom, and warm-hearted humor.
Leen will be lovingly remembered for his kind heart, sharp wit, welcoming nature and old-man strength. Whether it was his passion for gardening, his love for ice cream, or his deep appreciation for friends and family, he lived life with a generous spirit. His green thumb could breathe life, love, and color into any garden he touched. After a dedicated career with Aecon Construction, Leen found fulfillment in retirement, where he remained active in his community as a proud member of the Beamsville Lions Club and volunteering at WLMH.
Family and friends are invited to Tallman Funeral Home, Vineland, on Saturday, February 8, 2025. Visitation will be held from 1:00 to 2:00 PM, followed by a funeral service at 2:00 PM.
