William Reggie McLeod

It is with deep sadness that the family of William “Reggie” McLeod announce his passing on April 9, 2025 at the age of 89.

Reg was predeceased by his parents Ken and Beatrice McLeod of North Bay, his brothers Clarence (Mac) and his wife Velma, Garry and his wife Betty, and his sister Ruth Foisy and her husband Conrad.

He will be sadly missed by many nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews, and great-great nieces and nephews.

Reg was born in North Bay but moved to Deep River in 1954 to pursue a life-long career at Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. in Chalk River. He was a well-known member of the Deep River community, an honorary life-time member of the Deep River Curling Club and associate member of the Deep River Royal Canadian Legion.

Uncle Reg’s family would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Ceponis, Chris Carroll and his staff, Carrie Milks and the neighbours and friends who helped us through this difficult time.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Deep River Food Bank would be greatly appreciated by the family.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at 11:00 am at the Deep River Community Church. A Celebration of Life will be held on, what would have been his 90th birthday, on Friday, September 5, 2025 from 1-4 pm at the Deep River Curling Club. The family would like to invite all to attend.

Funeral arrangements entrusted to the Valley Funeral Home, Deep River.
