LANHAM

Leo Mathew Lanham, 58, (born Sept. 2, 1966) departed this world unexpectedly on June 8, 2025, at his home in Elkins, West Virginia.

He is the son of Leo and Shirley (Dodd) Lanham, who preceded him in death.

He is survived by his loving wife of 34 years, Sandy Jo (Spencer) Lanham; his brother, Mark Lanham; sisters-in-laws, Paula Lanham, Carolyn Spencer and Linda (Spencer) Haddix; brother-in-law, Mark Haddix; nieces, Kayla Lanham, Amy Webster, Emily Whitlow and Hannah Haddix; and nephews, Adam Haddix and Ben Haddix.

He was loved by everyone he met and would help anyone who asked. He served proudly in the United States Marine Corps, loved hunting, fishing, being outdoors and walking fields looking for Indian arrowheads. Leo was an avid pet lover of many boxers and rescues. He will be missed by all, and loved in our hearts forever. The world seems less without him. Leo’s wishes were to be cremated and services will be announced at a later date.
