Audry Genevieve Reed

May 7, 1941 — August 5, 2015

Audry Genevieve Reed, 74, from Tecumseh, KS, fought a long strong battle with colon cancer. She took her last breath on August 5, 2015 at 3:25 pm at Oakley Place Care Homes.

Audry was born on May 7, 1941 to Harvey and Edna (Schilling) Reed in Havensville, KS. She graduated from Havensville High School in 1959.

On January 16, 1965, she married Loren Reed. In January 2015, they celebrated 50 wonderful years of marriage together. Audry was a wonderful daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother.

She greatly cared about those around her and spent many years working in the community. She devoted her time to working at the Kaw Valley Girl Scout Council and after that as a librarian at Tecumseh South Elementary School for the Shawnee Heights School District. She loved helping children develop a passion for reading! One of her greatest pleasures was hosting the annual Reed July 3 Blast for the last 39 years.

Audry is survived by her husband, Loren; daughters, Sabrina Reed (John Ramm, Jr.) and Mindy Reed; son, Caleb (Michelle) Reed; grandchildren, Ashley (Jason) Wilson, Michael Holt (Joselyn Walden), Whitney (Johnathan) Croxell, Justyn and Nash Cooper, and Brinlei Reed; great grandchildren, Talon and Zadie Wilson; and siblings Steve (Madonna) Reed, Sherry Reed and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, and sister, Leona Roberts.

Services will be held at 10:30 a.m. Monday, August 10, 2015 at Penwell-Gabel Southeast Chapel where the family will receive friends one hour prior to service time. Burial will follow in Emmanuel Cemetery southeast of Topeka.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations may be made to Midland Care, 200 SW Frazier Circle, Topeka, Kansas 66606 or to the Colon Cancer Coalition, (Team Reed, KC 9/20/15), 5666 Lincoln Drive, Ste. 270, Edina, MN 55436 in her honor.

Special Thanks to the staff at Midland Hospice for providing all of the assistance needed to keep Audry comfortable in her last months. "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." -From a headstone in Ireland.
