Leonard was born in Norwalk, Connecticut, and opened the first Stew Leonard's in 1969 as a retail dairy store.
It was named the "World's Largest Dairy Store" by Ripley's Believe it or Not and earned a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the highest dollar sales per square foot of selling space.
Since then, the grocery store chain has grown to become a $600 million family-owned and operated business. The company has seven farm fresh food store locations and more than 2,500. Leonard was 93 years old and died at Lenox Hill Hospital after a brief illness, according to his family.
