Leonard Saul Baltin
A memorial service will take place at a later date.
Passed away suddenly on January 30, 2025, in Beaulieu-sur-mer France of natural causes in his sleep. Kind and gentle husband of 35 years to Merle McPhail and brother to Richard (Wendy) in Los Angeles, also brother- in-law to Tony (Susan) in Edmonton, and Pam in Montreal and uncle 5 times over even a 3 times Granduncle. Honorary stepbrother to Penny (Arthur) in Montreal, Howard (Julie) and Chen (Beverly) in Toronto. Plus, many extended family and friends in Boston, Washington, Los Angeles, Naples Florida, and across Canada. Son of the late Frank Baltin and the late Esther Rosnick.
Loved his music especially Joni Mitchell, restaurateur for 18 years in Westmount (Encore une fois) where we met. Loved his home in Montreal West and the community surrounding him. Often surprised how many people he knew from school and band days and had remained friends with them. For what ever the reason enjoyed going out for dinners with friends and family. Spent the last 11 years wintering in the south of France exploring the culture, art and history with Merle plus occasional visiting friends.
In lieu of flowers please send donations to Alzheimer Society (514) 485-7233 or Heart and Stroke Foundation (514) 871-1551.
