It is with broken hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Andrew Lorne Leech of Skiff Lake, NB, on December 4th, 2025. He was born in Woodstock on June 21st, 1959. He is survived by his wife, Andrea; his sons, Matthew (Pauline), Joseph (Sarah), and Michael; and his favourite daughter, Chloe. He also leaves behind five grandchildren: Benjamin, Audrey, Hanna, Oliver, and Ruby.

He is further survived by his sister, Heather (Eugene) Craig; his nieces, Julie and Amanda Craig; his aunts, Betty Neal and Agnes O'Neil; several cousins; his mother-in-law, Joanne Kraftcheck; his sister-in-law, Stephanie (Lance) Paul; and his nephews, Landon and Liam Paul. He was fortunate enough to leave behind an amazing group of friends who are also part of his extended family.

Andy was predeceased by his parents, George and Ann Leech; his grandparents, Walter and Elva Neal and Henry and Mabel Leech; his uncles, Edgar Neal and Edward, Orlan, Stanley, Carl, and Lorne Leech; and his aunts, Shirley Prosser and Marie Page.

Andy's children and grandchildren were his pride and joy. He volunteered tirelessly in his community and in multiple hockey organizations over the years.
