Leon Matuszewski Obituary

Leon E. Matuszewski, 77, of Fox Lake, formerly of Chicago, passed away Friday, August 20, 2021, at home. He was born July 1, 1944, in Chicago.

He was a veteran of the Vietnam War, during which he served as an Army Sergeant. He was a very patriotic, loved, and respectful man. Leon went on to work for the City of Chicago as a garbageman, retiring after 25 years of service.

Survivors include the love of his life, Chestine (nee Bentley); sons, David and Leon (Sherry); two grandchildren; stepsons, Mark Carbells and Leonard and Willie Bentley; four step-grandchildren; and two brothers.

The sweetest place in the world was wherever Leon was and Chestine knows he is saving a place for her.
