Celebration of Life for I. Leet

  • Emmanuel Baptist Church 275 State Street Albany, NY, 12210 United States (map)

A celebration of the life of Ian David Leet will be held on April 11, 2026, at Emmanuel. The service will be conducted by Pastor Kathy and Rev. Trey Tirpak, former pastor at First Church, where Ian was a member. Visiting with the family will begin at 10 am. The worship service will begin at 11 am, and a luncheon in Fellowship Hall will follow. Since Ian willed his body to the Albany Medical Center Anatomical Gift Program, there will be no interment.

Singers are invited to join the Emmanuel choir to sing the anthem “Greater Love Hath No One” by John Ireland. Please contact Michael Clement if you are interested. Help is also needed for the luncheon, including set up, clean up, preparation of food, and serving. If you would like to work on that, please contact Ellen Corcoran at 518-527-9569 or Edith Leet at 518-265-0551. The family is also asking for contributions to a memory book of stories about Ian. If you have a remembrance of Ian that you would like to share, please send it to Edith at the contacts above.
