Help the Leighty Family

Hastings resident Andrew Leighty, 36, passed away Friday, October 29, 2021, at his home after a very courageous battle with ALS.

 

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to the family for a memorial to be established for Brianna and Colten’s education.  

 

Andrew was born July 28, 1985, in Hastings, NE to Todd Jensen & Rebecca (Leighty) Schreckengost. He received two Associates' Degrees from Central Community College. Andrew married Alexandrea Ramirez on August 5, 2006.

 

Andrew was a manager at Hydroplains Irrigation Company. He was a member of Lifehouse Church. Andrew was an avid supporter of ALS in the Heartland, was an outdoorsman, and a very hard worker.

 

Andrew was preceded in death by his grandparents, Donald Jensen, Donna Jensen, Bill Leighty, and Pearl Leighty; and mother-in-law, Evette Mason.
