Leo Francis Cahalan III, 67, of Birmingham, AL, passed away on Thursday, February 21, 2019. He was born and raised in Union, New Jersey. He is reunited in heaven with his beloved wife of 43 years, Susie.
Family and friends will forever remember Leo’s sense of humor and love for his family. He had a positive impact on many people, including those he coached in youth soccer and employees at the family business, Top Fabricators. Leo’s determination to not be defined or slowed by his Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis at age 30 was inspirational.
Leo is preceded in death by his wife, Susie Brower Cahalan; and his parents, Leo Francis Cahalan, Jr. and Annette Magliaro Cahalan. He is survived by his sons, Lee Cahalan (Lesley) and Kyle Cahalan (Courtney); sisters, Kathleen Cahalan Kachelreiss and Eileen Cahalan Baker; grandchildren, Lauren, Hudson, Reid, Andrew and Barrett Cahalan; numerous nieces and nephews; and many other relatives and friends.
The family will gather privately later to celebrate Leo’s life.
To honor his memory, memorial donations may be made to one of Leo and Susie’s favorite charities, Special Equestrians of Birmingham, 1215 Woodward Drive, Indian Springs, AL 35124, or to a charity of your choice.
