Roberta Helen McLeod, 1952 – 2024

We are deeply saddened to announce the unexpected passing of Roberta Helen McLeod (Ferree).

Roberta is survived by her husband, Dave, her children, Hannah (Kris) and Eric (Abbey), her sisters, Sharon and Susan (Calixto) and their families, her cherished grandchildren Owen, Ella, and Ethan, the extended McLeod and Ferree families, and many friends.

To capture Roberta’s life and essence on paper would be nearly impossible-those that knew her understand the depth of the loss her family and loved ones feel without her presence. She was an intensely private person who always showed unconditional love to those around her, and created an incredible life for herself and her family. A life-long Alaskan, she loved this state, her home, and the many unique adventures and experiences it offered her. Roberta never knew the word “quit.”

The McLeod and Ferree families would like to extend their sincere sympathies to all who feel the loss of Roberta. She will be with us forever and we are proud to remember her love.

In lieu of condolences, please consider making a donation to the Fairbanks Community Food Bank where she volunteered with her children for years, or your preferred charity.
