Carol M. McLeod's Obituary
Carol M. McLeod, age 87, passed away peacefully on Thursday, March 19, 2020. She was born December 11, 1932 in Windsor, Ontario to Arthur and Florence (Lucas) Chapman. On October 12, 1957, she married David P. McLeod. Carol was a woman of great faith who put her family and friends above all else. She was an active member of Temple United Methodist Church for 60 years. One of Carol’s greatest gifts was her ability to see needs to better our community and put her faith into action. In the early 70’s, she helped form a group for adults with special needs to assist them with life skills. Carol was very proud of the reading tutorial program with Grace E. Loftis Elementary School that she coordinated for 15 years. In 1999, Carol co-founded Supper House, an all-volunteer, donation driven charity that continues to feed the hungry in Muskegon Heights. SURVIVORS include her husband, David of Roosevelt Park; son, Bruce D. (Jackie) McLeod of Arlington, VA; 2 step-grandchildren: Chris (Elizabeth) Koches, Kurt (Kyle) Ridley-Koches; 3 step-great-grandchildren; her sister, Patricia Polson of Victoria, British Columbia; her nieces: Nancy Polson and Cathy Graham; and nephews: David Polson, James Polson, Derek McArthur, Jamie McArthur, and David Blom. Carol was preceded in death by her son, Douglas P. McLeod in 1991. A MEMORIAL SERVICE for Carol will be held 10:30 AM Saturday, August 28, 2021 at Temple United Methodist Church.
