Leila Louise Siebert-McCormick (December 6, 1939- March 21, 2022) Leila Louise McCormick passed unexpectedly at the age of 82 on March 21, 2022. She will be remembered by her family and friends as a loving and devoted wife, an inspirational and supportive mother, and an adoring grandmother and great-grandmother to her ever-expanding family. Leila was born and raised in Raleigh, NC, as one of three children to Jean Self. As a young woman, Leila wed Lawrence Siebert. They moved to the Greater Boston area, where they had five beautiful daughters. Widowed at the age of 22, Leila grounded her roots in East Boston where she lovingly raised her family as a single mother. She later married John McCormick, her husband of 33 years. They shared some of their fondest memories spending summers together at their cottage on Rock Haven Lake in Maine. She enjoyed nothing more than surrounding herself with the love of her family, in her backyard, reading late into the night, working on her latest puzzle, and playing countless games of Cribbage. Leila's legacy encompasses the importance of family, the spirit of faith, the quality of independence, and the drive to persevere through adversity.
