THOMAS “TOM” LESLIE age 77, loving father of David (Aerianna) Leslie; devoted grandfather of Olivia and Benjamin; cherished son of the late Edmond and Mary (nee Speck); dearest brother of Patricia Schneider and the late David Leslie; friend and former spouse of Barbara Leslie; and friend to many. U.S. Navy Veteran.
Tom was born on September 30, 1948 in Cleveland, Ohio. He attended Collinwood High School and had a long career as a truck driver. He also spent time proudly serving his country in the U.S. Navy. When not working, Tom could be found woodworking, remodeling, cooking and baking for others. Above all else, he cherished the time spent with his family and friends…especially his grandchildren. Those that knew him would say that he was always the first one to lend a helping hand in any way he could. He will be missed by all that had the privilege of knowing him.
Family will receive friends to pay tribute to and celebrate the life of Tom at THE DeJOHN FUNERAL HOME & CELEBRATIONS CENTER OF CHESTERLAND 12811 CHILLICOTHE ROAD (Rt. 306, just south of Mayfield Rd.) THURSDAY, March 19, 2026 from 4-8 PM.
