Victoria Ann Leonarski-Fry's Obituary
Victoria “Vicky” Ann Leonarski Fry was 65 when she passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by her family on Monday, June 26, 2023.
Vicky was born on October 15, 1957, in Wilmington, DE. She attended Holy Rosary grade school and Claymont High School. She had fond memories of her father, mother, uncles and especially her great grandmother, Letitia. Vicky fascinated her family with detailed memories of her aunts, uncles, and childhood stories.
Her family meant the most to her and Vicky loved them dearly. She had a love for beauty, flowers, art, and gourmet food. Full of creative ideas, Vicky enjoyed cooking, gardening, decorating her home, and discovering priceless finds in her favorite thrift store.
Keinan, Vicky’s son, and Kira, her daughter, benefited from her caring presence as a homemaker during their youth. Kira blessed Vicky with three adorable grandchildren, who she spoiled at every opportunity. Her grandchildren brought her great joy. She loved to visit them, hear them excitedly cry, “Mommom!” and exchange hugs and kisses. Vicky was a loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She was loved by many and will be deeply and genuinely missed by all who were lucky enough to know her.
She is preceded in death by her parents, William, and Jean Leonarski.
