Marjorie Reed Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 28, 2015.

Marjorie Conlon Reed passed away on March 27, 2015. She was 97 years old. Wife of the late William A. Reed. Mother of Marjorie Reed Conatser (Willis). Grandmother of Kelly Reed Conatser (Leslie), Tracy Conatser Hale (Tim) and Shannon Conatser Pickens (Rick). Great Grandmother of James Conatser, Clara Conatser, Lainey Pickens, Jessie Pickens, and Ricky Pickens. Daughter of the late Harold Conlon, Sr. and Edith Conlon. Sister of the late Harold Conlon, Jr. Also survived by nieces and nephews.
Marjorie was born in Philadelphia and lived in Chicago, Cincinnati, and Lexington, Ky. before moving to New Orleans in 1999. We will especially miss her at her great grandchildren's many athletic, musical, and school events, all of which she attended for as long as she was able. At Christmas time, her favorite holiday, she never failed to delight us with her amazing baking skills.
A memorial service will be held at St. Augustine's Episcopal Church, 3412 Haring Road in Metairie on Wednesday, April 1, 2015 at 4:00 p.m. Visitation from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the church. Burial will be in Lexington, Ky.
The family would like to thank the staff of Emeritus, The Carpenter House, and Hospice Compassus for their excellent care and compassion during her final days.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to St. Augustine's Episcopal Church.
