We are stunned and deeply saddened by the passing of our beloved colleague, Michael Leiter. Mike joined Eder Financial as Client Services Manager in 2023, and his contributions were invaluable. His work experience was a unique mix of leadership, relationship building, product experience, and organizational management. He was well-suited to work at Eder because he had previously served in various Brethren retirement communities over the years and we especially appreciated the servant's heart Mike brought to his work. He will be remembered by our staff as a gentle, kind man who cared for others and did his work with integrity. We will miss him dearly.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the network of people touched by his lifetime of service and our deepest sympathies are with Mike’s wife, Cynthia Mason, and his two adult children, Caitlyn Leiter-Mason and Evan Leiter-Mason. The family respectfully requests that memorial contributions go to Global Women's Project or the Mission and Ministry Board in Mike's honor: Church of the Brethren, 1451 Dundee Avenue, Elgin, IL 60120.
We are committed to supporting our employees, members, and clients as we navigate this loss. During this period, for any inquiries related to Mike’s responsibilities, please contact Dan Radcliff at clientservices@eder.org or call 847-695-0200 and select option 5, then option 1.
