Obituary

Richard McLeod, age 76, passed peacefully in the early hours of Monday, March 24, 2025, with his daughter Katherine holding his hand and son Dan by his side.

Richard is survived by his sister Cathy (Bryan) Minnis, his daughter Katherine (Trent), son Dan (Cherry), grandchildren Nova, Sage, River and Tineesha.

Richard is predeceased by his loving wife Barbara Jane, his parents John and Eva and his sister Barbara.

Richard grew up hunting waterfowl with his Dad and that love for the outdoors stuck with him his entire life. Deer hunting near Belmont with his best friend Donny Lampkin were some of his favourite times spent outdoors. Later Richard loved going fishing with his son Dan and friend Russ. He loved his walleye fishing and eating them too. Richard loved growing tomatoes and marigolds. He enjoyed the simple things in life like having his morning coffee on the front porch with his dog Buck and a smoke. Richard loved to host and seemed to always have something cooking or on the BBQ with enough for everyone.

Richard had a special connection with his granddaughters Nova and Katherine. Together they shared daily phone calls and visits.

Thank you to the compassionate and professional staff at Bethesda place for Richard’s care and dignity.

There will be a celebration and remembrance of Richard’s life at a later date.
