Donald Leahey Obituary
Don was a husband, father, and provider. His work ethic was second to none and always made sure his family was taken care of. He was the true definition of a salesman. Whether it was janitorial supplies at the family business or making sure everyone looked good in the suit dept. at Dillard's.
Left to cherish his memory are his 2 sons, Sean Leahey and wife, Jocelyn and their children, Conor, Finn, and Cora; Donnie Leahey III and wife, Stevie of Norfolk and his mother, Marion; a sister, Patty L. Hunt of Missouri; and 2 brothers, Robert Leahey and Tim Leahey both of Norfolk; and many friends and customers who will miss him dearly.
A memorial service will be conducted at 2:00 p.m. on Sat., Dec. 18th in the Norfolk chapel of H. D. Oliver Funeral Apts. (please wear a face covering). The family will receive friends at a visitation 1 hour (1-2PM) prior to the service in the chapel. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to www.michaeljfox.org Online condolences may be sent to the family through www.hdoliver.com.
