Letha Maureen Reed was born on January 23, 1941 in Ethel, Mississippi to the late Earl (Buster) and Ivery Reynolds. She is reunited with them as well as her late husband, Rex; brother, Harlan; and sister, Betty. She is survived by her three children, Richard Alfred Reed (Darlene), Lydia Francine McGuinn (Gary), and Anthony Leighton Reed (Jan); eight grandchildren, Sara McGuinn Parham (Jared), Natalie Martinez-Reed (Adan), Trinity Reed Piyavunno, Leighton Reed (Sloane), Nichole Reed, Caroline McGuinn, Daniel Reed, and Reed McGuinn; and six great-grandchildren, Arabella Parham, Dylan Piyavunno, Abel Parham, Calliope Martinez-Reed, Bryce Piyavunno, and Eden Parham. Maureen was a faithful woman who loved the Lord deeply. She loved to worship through music and singing gospel music was one of her favorite things. She enjoyed gardening and watching different species of birds and taking care of her kitty cats. We will miss laughing, singing songs, playing dominos with you around the kitchen table, waiting on holidays to get together with the family to have huge southern meals, and Easter egg hunting with you in the backyard Momma, Meme, Grandmother, GG, Maureen.
It is well with your soul.
God Speed
