Obituary for Jack Clifford Leeson
Jack Clifford Leeson went to be with our Lord at the age of 78, on November 30, 2021. He was born in Anaconda, Montana on January 24, 1943 to Bob & Norma Leeson. The family later moved to Spokane, WA. Shortly after graduating from John Rogers High School, Jack joined the Navy and served on the USS Kitty Hawk for four years during the Vietnam War. After his discharge from the Navy, he settled in Seattle, Washington where he met Cherryl Ann Cyr. They were engaged within 18 days and married 53 years!
After graduating from Seattle University, Jack built a successful career in finance. During that time Jack and Cherryl were able to enjoy their passion for travel. They especially enjoyed cruising which allowed Jack to hone his shopping skills.
Jack as an avid Seattle sports fan, with season tickets to the Mariners and the Sonics as well as a love for the Seahawks!
Jack had a variety of other interests: race horses, a charter fishing boat, real estate, artifacts for the King Tutt exhibit.
For the past 20 years Jack and Cherryl have split their residence between Spokane and Waikiki, making great friends along the way. Jack is survived by his wife Cherryl, sister Billie (Ken), sister-in-law Carol (Ken), as well as several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Robert Leeson Sr, Norma Leeson, brother Robert Leeson Jr., nephew Jonathan Kerr, and beloved in-laws Armand and Lorraine Cyr.
I love you more, Sweetness!
