Stephen LeRoy Obituary
Stephen was the son of the late Franzle and Thelma (O'Tier) LeRoy, who lived in Port Gibson, N.Y. For 32 years, Steve served as Chief of Police for the Clifton Springs Police Department, where he was dedicated to guiding the youth and protecting the village's residents. Steve was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, friend, role model, and mentor. He enjoyed the outdoors, trap shooting, hunting, fishing, gardening, and spending time with family and friends.
Stephen will be remembered by his cherished bride of 59 years, Beverly, and his children: Kathleen (Brian) Russo, David (Ellen) LeRoy, and John (Cynthia) LeRoy; his five grandchildren: Hunter, James, Rocky, Jason, and Courtney will miss the fun they had together and learning from their grandfather. Stephen is also survived by his sister, Jean Blaisdell; and several nieces and nephews.
All are welcome to join the family at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday (October 20) at the Port Gibson Cemetery on Canandaigua Street for a memorial service.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to: Sisters of Christ The Light, Inc. c/o Jancy Thomas, 401 N. Washington Street, Wilmington, DE 19801 (ID: 47-1233391).

Steve was a great roll model. Many years ago I used to babysit the kids. We lived just up the road from Steve and family. My boyfriend who is now my husband for 49 yrs, Mr LeRoy gave him a speeding ticket. He was late for our date. Teaches him a lesson for being late. rest in peace. You were a great man!
