It is with deep sadness that the family of Phyllis Marion McLeod, 75, of Moncton, announces her passing on Tuesday, July 28, 2026, at Albert House Hospice SENB.
Born in Saint John, New Brunswick, Phyllis was the daughter of the late Clement and Myrtle (Francis) Snider.
Phyllis lived her life with unwavering devotion to the people she loved. Family was always at the centre of everything she did. She was the heart that kept everyone connected, the steady presence who brought loved ones together, celebrated life's milestones, and offered comfort during difficult times. Her greatest joy came from caring for her family and creating lasting memories with those closest to her.
She leaves behind her beloved daughter, Tracy Saunders (Jerry), and her cherished granddaughters, Emily and Lillian, who were a constant source of pride and happiness. She is also survived by her sister, Nancy Pollock (Darrell); her brother, Clement Snider (Diane); and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends.
In addition to her parents, Phyllis was predeceased by her beloved son, Michael, in May 2026, a loss she carried with immense love and courage.
Beyond her family, Phyllis formed deep and lasting friendships within her building, creating a welcoming circle of companionship, kindness, and support. Her door was always open, her conversations heartfelt, and her friendships treasured. To many, she was more than a neighbor; she was a trusted friend who made others feel valued, included, and cared for.
Phyllis will be remembered for her generosity, strength, and the love she poured into the lives of those around her. Her legacy lives on in the family she held together, the friendships she nurtured, and the countless lives she touched through her compassion and kindness.
The family will receive condolences at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 88 Church Street, Moncton (506-858-1900), where the funeral service will be celebrated on Sunday, August 9, at 2 p.m. Visiting hours will be held on Sunday, August 9, from 1 p.m. until the time of the funeral service. A private family interment will take place at Cedar Hill Extension Cemetery in Saint John on August 10.
In memory of Phyllis, donations to Hospice SENB (Albert House) would be appreciated.
