Ronald LeRoy Leist, 74, Rowan, Iowa died Aug. 2, 2021 at Clarion Wellness and Rehabilitation. Services were held Aug. 7 at the Belmond United Methodist Church. Burial was at Graceland Cemetery, Rowan.

On May 26, 1971 Burly married Donna Steenblock at the Belmond United Methodist Church. They made their home on their farm and were blessed with three children. Ron loved being on the farm, whether working the land or helping a new calf into the world. He would often drive around admiring the countryside he loved. He grew up milking cows and later raised various livestock with his kids and Donna. His biggest accomplishments were the farm and his family.

Burly loved all things outdoors, including hunting and fishing trips to Devil's Lake. He enjoyed taking his kids and grandchildren fishing and asparagus hunting. Ron always had a joke and was a great storyteller, drawing you in with his excitement. He never met a stranger. There was always an extra seat at the table. If you were hungry or needed something, Ron stepped up. His generosity was beyond measure, and he believed in The Golden Rule.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and brother Robert Leist. Burly is survived by his wife Donna; children LeRon Morel of Muscatine, John H.
