Leonard Ratner married Lillian Bernstein in 1924 and had two children: Ruth Ratner Miller and Albert B. Ratner. Leonard Ratner held many important positions on community boards during his lifetime, including the positions of honorary life trustee at the Jewish Welfare Federation, the Jewish Community Federation, and Mount Sinai Hospital. His daughter Ruth was a civic leader, businesswoman, and philanthropist. She and Samuel Miller had four children. Albert B. Ratner married Faye Katz in 1950 and had two children.
