Leonard L. Wirtanen Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on February 26, 2026, at the age of 74, Leonard L. Wirtanen (Somerville, New Jersey) passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Leonard L. Wirtanen to pay them a last tribute.

He was predeceased by: his parents, George Wirtanen and Marion Boyanowski; and his brother John Wirtanen. He is survived by: his wife Kathy Wirtanen; his children, Matthew Wirtanen and Jessica Spinner (Benjamin); his grandchildren, Ethan, Julian, Owen, Eleanor and Aspen; and his pet Grady.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations of "Hope in a Bag" care packages for cancer patients, in honor of his grandson, Ethan's mitzvah project-lovingly dedicated to him as he bravely fought cancer for many years.
