Kenneth Robert
Macleod
January 20, 1937 – January 16, 2021
Kenneth Robert MacLeod, 83, of Merrimack, NH passed away after a courageous battle with Covid-19 on January 16th, 2021. Ken was always recognized for his kindness and his smile. He was a friend to all who knew him. Many referred to him as "Kenjamin". This nickname was coined by his sons during a fishing trip during their childhood.
Ken served in the US Air Force for 4 years and graduated from Bay State Community College. He married his loving wife, Trudy, in 1970, whom he adored. They then moved to NH to raise their children. Ken worked for Montgomery Ward as an appliance repairman and then continued his career in construction until retirement.
Upon his retirement, his greatest joy was spending time with his beloved family. He had a special bond with each of his 6 children and 15 grandchildren. Whether it was vacationing in Cape Cod, lounging by his pool, attending the Highland Games, or going out to dinner; he loved being with family.
Always a gentleman, he will be truly missed by all who were lucky enough to know him. He will never be forgotten.
Ken was predeceased by his parents, Kenneth and Anna, and his 2 brothers, Carl and Jimmy.
Ken is survived by his sister, Ethlyn Mooney, of Florida, his wife Gertrude (Burns) Macleod of Merrimack, NH, his children: Heather and Christopher Sheehan of Brockton, Mass, Kenny and Erin MacLeod of Merrimack, NH, Lynn and Frank Sullivan of Milford, NH, Christine MacLeod Cook of Nashua, NH, Susan Casey and David Cates of Mont Vernon, NH, Robert and Jessica MacLeod of Milford, NH. He is also survived by his 15 grandchildren, many nieces and nephews and numerous other friends and family.
His services will be held at a later date due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Hold Fast!
