RACINE – Leonard Thomas Curry, Jr. (Junebug), 66, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, May 8, 2021.
He was born in Alamo, Tennessee on December 20, 1954, the son of the late Leonard Thomas and Elizabeth Marie (nee Dawson) Curry, Sr.
Leonard loved his family dearly, but his passion was for cars. He worked for Chrysler for many years until his retirement. In addition, he loved working on cars and racing cars, and was a member of the Racine Independent Racers.
He is survived by his daughter, Nicole (Danny Sr.) Overstreet of Racine; his grandchildren, Nicholas (Jelissa) Miller, Danny Overstreet, Jr. Elizabeth Overstreet and great grandchild Tyson Miller all of Milwaukee, loving companion, Jettie Hall of Racine, aunt Jimmie Mae Dawson Hudson of Alamo, TN, and special cousin Nikki Churchwell of Milwaukee. Leonard was a father figure to many who are left to cherish his memory; as well as many dear, close relatives and friends, too numerous to mention. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his cousins, Greg, Nate, Jerry and Joann Dawson.
Family and friends are invited to meet in the Draeger-Langendorf Funeral Home and Crematory on Saturday, May 22, 2021 for a visitation from 3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. A service celebrating and remembering his life will follow at 4:00 p.m. A private interment will take place.

My sincere thoughts, prayers and condolences go out to the family and friends of Junebug. I’ve known him since grade school. We spent countless hours together building model cars, racing slot cars, fixing and riding bicycles and showing cars. Junebug was more than a friend. He was like a brother. I thank God for knowing and sharing time with him. I will truly miss him.
