Leonid Khodak

Leonid Khodak, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away at home on March 9 at the age of 91. Born on July 18, 1934, in a small town in Ukraine, he grew up during the difficult years of World War II and later immigrated to the United States in 1980. He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Liza Khodak (née Gelman), and their two sons, Samuel and Alexander Khodak.

Leonid cherished sharing stories from his life and found great joy in being surrounded by his family. Known for his infectious laughter and his sweet tooth, he will be deeply missed by his five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
