Jeff Reid and Family
Ma you were beautiful, and the strongest women I ever knew, I am proud to be your son. You never let trouble times keep you or the family down, you always looked ahead and remembered the good times. You taught me never to shy away from hard work, there was always a cold beer waiting at the end of long work day. Your attention to the details in a task was amazing, especially when it came to Sunday meals, some of my fondest memories are with family and friends sitting around the house enjoying your food and talking. Natalie and Nicholas remember your passion for helping the neighborhood animals, mostly cats with the odd racoon, and they learned compassion for all those less fortunate.
A person is remembered by the friends and family they have, there are so many lovely comments on this memory wall, I would like to pass along a heartfelt thank you to everyone on behalf of the Reid&&single&&s.
I miss your guidance and at times harsh advice, but you taught me fairness, I miss you. God be with you.
Your son Jeff

To all of the Reid Family. I am so saddened by all of your families loss. Your Mom was a great lady who always has had a place in my heart. I have wonderful memories of your parents time in Lobo. Pat and I shared many laughs and beers (half’s) when I worked for your parents. I will always treasure those memories. I was lucky enough to visit her in Seaforth including moving Pat and Bill in and doing the roof. I am so sad to say that I haven’t seen her in the last couple of years and deeply regret that. I learned a lot from Pat she was a fiercely independent woman that I am so honoured to have called my friend. Her giving soul and kindness to me will never be forgotten.
