In Memorial

Robert “Bob” Leech, 90, passed away on the morning of August 3, 2023, from congestive heart failure. He was pre-deceased by his wife, Ann P. Leech, in 2013 and is survived by two sons and a daughter-in-law (Andrew, Mark, and Murlene Leech of Virginia Beach) and three granddaughters (Rebecca Leech of Harrisburg, PA; Rachel Leech of Pittsburgh, PA; and Sarah Leech of Fort Smith, AR). Bob was born and raised in Pittsburgh and had a lengthy career as a naval officer. He loved British mysteries; was a voracious reader of Christian theology and European history; and enjoyed his travels to Italy, Greece, and Israel. He was a long-time and much-loved member of New Covenant Presbyterian Church in Virginia Beach. The family will be holding a private graveside ceremony on August 11, and there will be a memorial service at New Covenant (1552 Kempsville Rd, Virginia Beach, VA 23464) at 11 AM on Saturday, August 19. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the church.

    Lani and I experienced sadness on hearing of Bob’s passing, mixed with joy at his reunion with his Lord. His family lost a wonderful Father, and we all lost a wonderful and faithful friend. Lani and I have wonderful memories of staying with Bob and Ann along with the wonderful talks we had with both of them. Their lives inspire us to continue on in the Lord. We look forward to seeing them again.
