Obituary of Donato Leone Jr.

Donato Leone (Danny) age 73, of Trumbull, passed away peacefully on Monday, June 21, 2021 at St. Vincent's Medical Center. Born in Bridgeport, CT, he was the son of the late Donato and Antonetta Fabrizio Leone.

Donato was a graduate of Fairfield Preparatory School and Sacred Heart University. He was dedicated to his work in the banking and hotel industries. He was an avid chess player and sports fan. He enjoyed watching the NY Yankees, Giants and Knicks games and listening to 1960's music. He also enjoyed spending time with his family and friends as well as weekend, day trips to scenic CT shoreline towns. He had strong pride in his Italian-American heritage and it was reflected in his love of classic movies, food and cultural gatherings.
