In his free time, he liked to build model cars and do slot car racing. He married in 1973 and had a son with his wife before their separation, but he always prioritized his son and loved spending time with him. He went on to begin work at Owens Illinois up until his division was bought out. From there he worked many various jobs up until his retirement.

Leland loved to read, especially about WWI and WWII. He was very interested in history as well as airplanes. He would share with his son the fond memories he had of visiting his grandmother down in Florida as a child.

He will be dearly missed.
