Tux Leckey 

April 28, 2015 - August 20, 2023

Tux, beloved companion and longtime greeter at Boxwoods Antique Market passed peacefully, Sunday evening, August 20th. Born in Charleston, he was adopted by

Tony at 12 weeks old and joined him and his new sisters, Lucy and Lola in a large lodge cabin hunting lodge, high on a hill outside Atlanta. The perfect gentleman, Tux was sweet and 

gentle with every breathe he took and left any "trouble making" to his sisters. Tux, Lucy and Lola bonded quickly and enjoyed a comfortable and happy life; doggie day camp 

2x a week, road trips, camping, swimming, retrieving balls from the pool accompanied by all the love they could possibly be given. A brother, Joey, later joined the family and then Max. 

They enjoyed a calm and peaceful home life together for many years. And occasionally their very own rib eye steak (each) from Browns Seafood or Good Day Cafe. 

Tux loved spending time in "the shop", the family's furniture stores in Atlanta and later in Waynesboro at Boxwoods Antique Market. He spent many hours over the years

greeting customers and following them thru the store, often finding a stuffed animal and dropping it at their feet to see if they might play. The family is thankful that

God gave us the beautiful gift of sharing our lives with this sweet boy. There's something amazing and healing about the love of our "pets". And although we'll miss

him and remember him with teers in our eyes, we're so very thankful and blessed to have shared our lives. 

Tux was predeceased by his sister, Lola Leckey.
