    Marcia & family, I have been friends with Marcia for over40 years. When we were teenagers, Mrs. McLeod would allow us to "hang out" at their home. It was always a comfortable place to be. This lovely lady will be sincerely missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. Melanie & Larry Yeager

    I am so sorry to hear about your mother. When I was reading about Alice McLeod, I remember so many child hood memories, your home was like a second home for me while I was growing up.

    Please accept our condolences in Alice's death. She was our Eastern Star Sister, and we sometimes picked her up for our meetings. She was a very nice lady.

    I grew up with Marcia and was always welcome in the home on Bay St. in Charlotte. Mrs McLeod was always a sweet and beautiful woman. She always had a beautiful smile, story to tell us and kind words for all. She will be missed. Marcia, all your friends are here for you with their prayers.

    Mary Anne, I remember your lovely mother well. She was always so kind to me when i visited in your home, and I remember once she helped find a pair of roller skates that I could borrow. Unfortunately, having never been on them before, I did not put them to good use the day we went roller skating. Please know that my thoughts are very much with you and your family during this sad time.
