HOLDEN – Stuart C. Leroy, Jr., 86, passed away peacefully with his loving family by his side on Monday, December 28, 2020, at Holden Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center. Born and raised in Worcester, Stu was the son of Stuart C. and Agatha (Howard) Leroy and lived 49 years in Holden.
Stu was a graduate of North High School in 1952. In 1955, he graduated from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy in Boston. Stu honorably served his country in the United States Army as a phlebotomist while stationed in Germany.

Stu spent his retirement years focused on his wife, children and grandchildren. He loved watching Boston sports teams, listening to music, and taking Cape Cod summer vacations.
He was a devout Catholic and longtime member of St. George Parish and its St. Vincent de Paul Society in Worcester. He was also a member of the Greendale Retired Men’s Club.
