Paul LeClair Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Ed & Don DeCarbo Funeral Home & Crematory, Inc. - Mill Street on Feb. 2, 2026.
Paul M. LeClair, 65, of Bessemer, Pa passed away January 31, 2026 at his residence.

Born in Charleroi, PA on May 20, 1960, Paul was the son of the late August and Rita LeClair.

Paul is survived by his beloved wife, the former Diana Callahan. The two were married on May 21, 2020.

Paul had proudly served his country as a member of the United States Army from April 7, 1981 to April 6, 1987. He had done his Boot Camp at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky playing rugby while there. He was then deployed overseas to Wiesbadan, Germany and was honorably discharged as Sergeant.

Paul had worked for Hynes Industries and then Lindy Paving. He was a former Mohawk Varsity Football Coach. Paul was Vice President of the Johnson Club in Hillsville and a member of the Croatian Club in Bessemer. He enjoyed golfing, hunting and was an avid football fan. A loving husband, father and grandfather, Paul's greatest joy was spending time with his family and friends.

In addition to his wife, Paul is survived by his daughter, Erica Dagres (Justin), two brothers, Mark and Matt LeClair and his two granddaughters, Adalyn Dagres and Alexis Anderson.

Honoring his wishes, there is no viewing or service. Arrangements have been entrusted to the Ed & Don DeCarbo Funeral Home & Crematory, 941 S. Mill St.
