LESLIE A. CIAMMAICHELLA

Leslie Ann Ciammaichella, age 66 of Medina Ohio, passed away January 14, 2024, after a sudden illness.

Leslie was born September 5, 1957, to Ronald and Shirley Ciammaichella of Hinckley, Ohio. She was a proud member of the Highland High School class of 1975 and remained active in the Alumni Association.

She graduated from Cuyahoga Community College with a degree in Graphic Communication and Management Technology. She held various positions in the graphic design industry beginning as a Digital Graphics Imaging Operator.

Leslie bridged the evolutionary gap as graphic design progressed from analog to digital assisted processes, while adapting to new technologies of the 1990’s. She was the founder and owner of Total Print Solutions, a graphic design, marketing and print brokerage company. Her skills for exceptional customer service eventually led her to pivot to the rapidly developing mobile telecommunications industry.

Through the years Leslie remained passionate about photography and creating her beautiful art for friends, family, and community. She was active in the Medina County Art League and Guild of Highland Artists. Family and friends were a priority. Many experienced Leslie’s love and caring support as she advocated for those in need. She had a love for family, always organizing a gathering and sharing her latest discoveries of the Ciammaichella/Cady family genealogy. We will miss her
enthusiastic optimism, contagious smile and uproarious laugh.

Leslie is survived by her brother, Richard (Char) Ciammaichella, of Aurora; sister, Lori (Danny) McVay, of Sharon Center; brother, Michael (Donna) Ciammaichella, of Lewis Center; nieces and nephews, Alan (Ari) Ciammaichella, Doug (Kim) Ciammaichella, Joe (Deanna) Ciammaichella, Kelly and Dylan McVay, Andrew (Vivian Becerra) Ciammaichella and Anthony (Taylor) Ciammaichella; grandnephew, Lincoln Ciammaichella, and grandnieces, Lucy and Alena Ciammaichella.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Ronald and Shirley (Cady) Ciammaichella.
