Leo Coacher passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, December 16, 2025. He was born on October 8, 1960 in Bridgeport, Connecticut to Leo and Anne Coacher (nee McClatchy). A graduate of Archbishop John Carroll High School and West Chester University, Leo was a lifelong resident of Havertown, Pennsylvania.
Leo is survived by his beloved wife of 39 years, Susie (nee Curcio), and daughter, Caitlin Rankin (Matthew); grandsons Leo and Ryan; his mother Anne Coacher; his siblings LeAnne Luterman (Keith), Raymond Coacher (Trish), Joan Dougherty (Beau), Laura Barr (Michael); and by many loving extended family members and dear friends. He is predeceased by his father Leo Coacher Sr.
Leo was a dedicated Philadelphia sports fan, and enjoyed every moment he shared with friends and family watching games. Leo loved fishing, golfing, and playing corn hole, but nothing so much as spending time with his family and friends. Leo will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Family and friends are invited to gather for visitation on Saturday, December 20th from 9:00-10:15 AM at Sacred Heart Church (105 Wilson Avenue, Havertown, PA 19083), followed by a funeral mass at 10:30 AM. Internment will take place at Westminster Cemetery in Bala Cynwyd.
