Roger Antonio Leyton, 41, passed away in the loving arms of his wife and mother on December 27th, 2024. He passed due to health complications from treatment for cancer. His firm belief in God supported him in his struggle and ultimately gave him peace.
He is survived and missed by his loving wife Brittany Leyton; mother Fidelina Ortega; father Erasmo Leyton and siblings Joanny Ramirez, Edwin Leyton, Saulo Leyton and Yesenia Morales.
He lived a life of service to his country and community by serving as a U.S Marine Corps combat veteran and Pasco Sheriff’s Office training corporal and K9 deputy.
He was an amazing and tender husband and example of profound strength to his family and friends. Roger will be deeply missed.
We ask that you remember him not for the way his life ended, but for the way it was lived, and for the profound impact it had on the lives of those who had the blessing of knowing him.
A memorial service will be held on January 6th, 2025 at 10:00 AM at Grace Family Church located at 22920 Sr 54 Lutz, FL 33549

To the family, our hearts goes out to everyone impacted. This is a moment in time that no one could have ever saw coming. I was so pleased to have met Roger early September 2024. That short time and moment meant so much to me and holds dear to my heart forever. Family share those memories. Take your time to heal and remember you are not alone.
“Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.'”
