Robert Leonard was born November 3, 1941 to Robert Michael and Dorothy (Wiese) Geldner in St. Peter. He graduated from St. Peter High School in 1959. Bobby was united in marriage to Dianne Kral and blessed with four children. He started his own business in 1965, which he ran until the end of his life. Bobby raced cars for over 30 years, starting at age 17, and was an inaugural member of the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series. Bobby's business and racing travels took him around the country and led to a steady accumulation of friends and adventures. He volunteered his time with the Le Sueur County Mounted Sheriff's Posse, the St. Peter Volunteer Fire Department for 18 years, the National Guards for six years, the Le Sueur County Historical Society site of Geldner's Sawmill and was a member of the St. Peter Red Men Club. He was dedicated to the conservation of German and Jefferson Lakes and the preservation of family heritage. Bobby had an endless sense of humor and generous heart that kept him surrounded by friends and family, enjoying the lakes, fishing, driving horses, and life.
Bobby is survived by his four children: Brett (Deb) Geldner, Robyn (Brendan Moore) Geldner, Brandon Geldner, and Ryann (Annie Annunziato) Geldner; three grandchildren: Liam, Gaian, and Breanna; special friend, Corky Biehn; sister, Roberta Mulvehill; niece, Kris Fultz; and two nephews: Scott Fultz and Mark Mulvehill; and, former wife Paula Michael. He was preceded in death by his parents.
