1935 - 2022

Leo passed away peacefully in his sleep, at home on December 28, 2022.

Beloved husband of Patricia and cherished father of Michael (Larissa Jackson), Donna Annette (Stephen), and Teresa Ezquerra (Mauro Leonardo).

Predeceased by his parents Bernard and Ellen (Doyle), his sisters Mary and Ellen, and brother Brendan. He is survived by his grandchildren Riley, Alexander, Devin, Emma, Aaron, and Anna along with a wide network of nieces and nephews throughout Canada and Ireland.

Leo grew up in the small town of Gilford, County Down in the North of Ireland with 10 brothers and sisters.

While we are devastated by his loss we will honour his memory by trying to emulate his zest for life, his sense of humour, his integrity, his kindness, and the charming, mischievous glint he had in his eye his whole life.

Special thanks to Nirusha Rajendraprasath PSW, and the many others who supported Leo at home over the past year.

Visitation will be held on Sunday, January 1, 2023, from 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. and Monday, January 2, 2023 from 2:00 p.m.– 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. at McEachnie Funeral Home, 28 Old Kingston Rd. in Ajax. A Mass Of Christian Burial will be Tuesday, January 3, 2023 at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church at 11:00 a.m. followed by burial.

In lieu of flowers the family ask that you make a donation to the Irish Cultural Society of Toronto’s Benevolent Society.
