Clifford Leonard Sr

Our beloved dad, grandfather, great-grandfather and sweetheart, Clifford T. Leonard, left this earth on December 10, 2023 with his loving family by his side.

He led a full and well-lived life sharing his smile, musical talents, his motorcycle and gift of gab. He was born on August 18, 1938 and was predeceased by son Cliff Leonard Jr., his daughter Annette Ritenour, as well as his parents and siblings. He was the last surviving member of his immediate family.

He is survived by his daughters, Chelsea Leonard-Baum and Angela Ritenour; grandson Cody Baum, and his daughters Presley and Emery; and the love of his life Monica Ritenour, as well as many friends and extended family.

Cliff proudly served in the US Army and Reserves. He worked as a truck driver for many local companies and belonged to many social clubs. After his retirement, he loved spending winters in Florida where he was able to take his daily ride in the sunshine, which he loved. Anyone who met Cliff became his friend. A private service was attended by immediate family at Lopatich-Brinker Funeral Home, LLC, 601 Weldon Street, Latrobe.

Cliff’s family would like to thank the extraordinary efforts of the Independence Health System Westmoreland Hospital doctors, nurses and hospice staff. They gave Cliff and his family one more day to be together.
