Edward Liebel Obituary
November 3, 1939 - February 21, 2025
Edward (Ed) Joseph Liebel passed away peacefully on February 21, 2025. He was a devoted father to Gene Liebel and Loralynn Liebel Peraza and a proud grandfather to Kayla Lorraine Peraza, Scott J. Peraza, Karli Lynne Peraza, and Tomás Liebel.
He is also survived by his sister, Carol Lewandowski, and his second wife, Patricia J. Liebel. Ed was a cherished uncle to 12 nieces and nephews and a beloved great-uncle to six grandnieces and grandnephews.
Edward was predeceased by his parents, Raymond and Helen (Whitman) Liebel, his brother, Raymond W. Liebel, Jr., and his two sisters, Jeannette "Jan" DelleCurti and Helen Szparaga.
Born in Erie, PA, on November 3, 1939, Ed spent his early years on East 11th Street. He served his country with honor in the United States Air Force. A natural curiosity and talent for fixing things eventually led him to start or work in car dealerships and other related businesses.
In 1966, Ed made his home in Orange, CT, where he was very active and well-known within the community, coaching youth sports and volunteering.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate Ed's life on Sunday, March 9, from 1pm - 3pm at Gioia Restaurant, 150 Wooster St., New Haven, CT 06511. No other services will be held.
