It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Robert "Leo" Leone, a pillar of love and strength in our family, on Thursday, May 9, 2024. He departed this world unexpectedly, leaving behind a profound void in the lives of all who knew him.

Robert was born on September 21, 1949 in Elmsford, New York. He was known for his unwavering kindness, genuine warmth, and boundless generosity. His gentle demeanor and contagious smile brought joy to countless hearts and touched the lives of many.

In addition to his roles as a loving father, cherished grandfather, and husband, Robert was a respected Elmsford Sheet Metal Teamster Local #456 for 42 years, where he dedicated himself to his career. His integrity and commitment to his work earned him the admiration and respect of his coworkers.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to his happiness and well-being, always ready to lend a listening ear or offer sage advice. His support and endless affection served as a source of strength for his family through every triumph and challenge.

In his role as a grandfather, Robert was a source of joy and laughter. He cherished every moment spent with his grandchildren, creating cherished memories that will be treasured for generations to come. Whether sharing stories, playing games (especially War or Pinball), or simply basking in their presence, his love knew no bounds, and his legacy of love will live on in their hearts forever.

Robert was a wonderful husband, a soulmate, and a best friend. His love for Carol was a testament to the enduring power of love. Together, they built a life filled with love, laughter, and precious moments that will be cherished eternally.
