Khristene Leczo, 40, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away on January 21, 2024. Born on June 12, 1983, to Chris and Sandra Leczo, Khristene was a cherished daughter, sister, mother, and friend. She is survived by her mother and father, her brother Robert, sister Rebecca, and her beloved daughter, Willow Mae. Khristene also leaves behind numerous cousins, aunts, uncles, and countless family and friends.

Khristene found joy in the simple pleasures of life, particularly spending quality time at the park with her daughter Willow. Her love for dogs knew no bounds.

Khristene's journey began at J-Town High School in Louisville, Kentucky, where she graduated. A compassionate soul, she dedicated herself to caring for animals as a Vet Tech and found fulfillment in creating a warm and loving home as a Homemaker later in life.

Khristene is preceded in death by her grandparents, Randall and Patricia Whittaker, and Peter and Alice Leczo.

Though she has left this earthly realm, her legacy of love and compassion will endure through the memories shared by those whose lives she touched.

Cremation was chosen and Magnolia Cremations of Jeffersonville, Indiana has been entrusted with the arrangements.

Kristi was such a kind and loving soul. There’s not many genuine people I can trust but I never even for a second questioned her loyalty. We worked at Doerr Animal Clinic together and we instantly clicked. One of those people that are in your path for a reason and you know because they’re on that same wavelength. She was the change she wanted to see in the world. If she loved you, she loved hard. There’s nothing in this world that she would not do for her daughter and she loved her immensely. She without a shadow of a doubt was one of the strongest women I know. No matter what traumatic and difficult situations life threw she went through she still held her head high and did what she was supposed to do and never stopped showing up as a mom, employee, family member or friend. For me she was that person I could call up anytime and tell her anything My wall cam down with her. I knew she would never let my business out to anyone. There’s not any other souls like her and she will be dearly missed.

I met Kris working at Shively Animal Clinic. She was literally one of the best people. Always had a polar pop in her hand. She was always so funny and great to be around. I’ll always cherish our venting sessions in my car.
