Leonard Michael McLelland

April 10, 1965 – November 24, 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Leonard at home on Wednesday, November 24, 2024, at the age of 59.

Leonard will be dearly missed by his children Leonard Ivan McLelland (Lindsay) and Randeane Florence McLelland (Jay). Beloved sibling to Lynn (Dan) MacDonald, Kelly (Joe) McLelland, Tim (Laura) McLelland, and Kristen (Ron) Doneff. Proud grandfather to Meya, Willow, and Baby Nora. Leonard is also remembered fondly by his nieces, nephews, and his fur babies Roscoe, Milo, Lily, and Popeye, who will greet him over the rainbow.

Predeceased by his parents Marlene (2023) and Leonard Sr. (2024), Leonard was a proud Navy veteran and continued his love for ships by working as a welder. His passion for cars and home projects was unmatched.

A celebration of Leonard’s life will be held at a later date. Memorial donations to the Fort Erie SPCA would be greatly appreciated by the family.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Merritt Funeral Home, Smithville. Online condolences may be shared at their website.
