REID, Marlene (nee Richards) Reid  – 

June 5, 1938 – June 17, 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother Marlene Reid (nee Richards) who passed away on Monday June 17, 2024 at the age of 86.

he will always be lovingly remembered by her daughters Shaaron Del Vecchio (and husband Mike) and Debbie Marsden as well as her grandchildren Amy Del Vecchio, Marcus Del Vecchio, Grace Del Vecchio, Dana Yurchi, Adam Marsden-Yurchi and Harrison Marsden-Yurchi.

Fondly remembered by her former husband Ken Reid. Mom is survived by her siblings in England Sheila Perry (and husband Mike) and David Richards (and wife Susan) whose strong bond stretched many miles across the ocean. Also in England are nieces and nephews Mark Perry and his daughter Jessica, Lisa Richards (and husband Gavin) as well as Susan Hall, Timothy Hall, Billy Hall and Carlo Hall.

Mom was predeceased by her parents Harry and Annie Richards and her brother Raymond Richards. 

Mom came to Canada in 1959 as a young woman ready for an adventure. She quickly made Canada her home when she married her then husband the late Michael Marsden, father to Shaaron and Debbie. Mom’s heart has always remained in England where she will be buried at a later date.

The family wishes to thank the staff at Hillsdale Estates for their continuous support as well as her PSW and friend Valerie who brought kindness and patience to mom’s day.
