Lorraine cherished her 32 year career at Pace University in White Plains. She was the coordinator of the International Studies program.

Lorraine loved attending Elvis impersonator concerts, car shows and watching her New York Yankees with her husband, Charlie. She also enjoyed country music, baking and knitting. Her greatest loves were her family and friends. Lorraine never missed the opportunity to send a card or make a loving phone call.
Lorraine is survived by her brothers Tom Leonard Jr. (Laura) and Tim Leonard (Gayle). She was predeceased by her sister, Nancy Leonard. Lorraine is also survived by her loving nephews and nieces, Matthew (Annmarie), Kevin (Stephanie), Jenna, Justin, Nora and Olivia.

To Charlie Monaco and the Leonard Family, please accept my deepest sympathy. I first met Lorraine when we were 16 and working our first jobs at Woolworths. She was a beautiful person inside and out. Although I moved out of state about 27 years ago we kept in touch through birthday, Christmas and Anniversary cards. I will always remember her kindness, humor, and delicious chocolate chip/m&m cookies. She was a gentle, beautiful soul that will be missed. I hope that your wonderful memories of her will give you some peace. My prayers are with you all.
