Obituary for Anthony "Tony" Leesha

Anthony J. (Tony) Leesha, 64, died unexpectedly on December 11, 2021. Anthony was born on December 7, 1957 to the late Anthony and Cecelia (Saad) Leesha and grew up in West Hartford.

He leaves a sister Maryann; Pete and Tony who were like his brothers; Paula who was like another sister; his Aunt Rosemary; cousins Roseann and David, Maryjane and Frank, Elena and Bob, Denise and Steve, Corin, Nick, and Joey. He was predeceased by his Uncle Joey and Grandparents Francis and Hifa Saad; his Uncle Rudy and Grandmother Julia Leesha. Tony was a "Cat Dad" to Elly, Patches, Lucky, Halo, Catlynn and many other cats over the years. If one showed up at his door needing food, water or to come in out of the cold, Tony made sure they had a home.

Tony graduated from the University of Hartford and owned Computer Repair and Upgrading. He did not like to sit still for very long and always found ways to stay busy. He was a member of various Chambers of Commerce and served on many committees, where he met many friends. He enjoyed his weekly breakfasts at Chips Restaurant and meeting up with friends to discuss the stock market. He would be at WOW Fitness every morning as soon as they opened, unless it was raining, then he stayed home! Tony's favorite "happy place" was Mohegan Sun where he would go any day, any time.

A small, simple ceremony will be held at the Mausoleum at Mt. St. Benedict Cemetery in Bloomfield on Tuesday May 10 at 12:00 noon. Online condolences may be made at www.SheehanHilbornBreen.com.
