Mrs. Reed was born December 11, 1937, in Toby Twp., Clarion Co., a daughter of the late Preston and Dorothy (Switzer) Adams. She was a 1955 graduate of the former Fredonia High School.

Delores was employed in the customer service department of the former Sears Department Store in the Shenango Valley Mall for more than 25 years.

Delores was a member of the former Evangelical Baptist Church in Sharon.

A homemaker at heart, she enjoyed time with her beloved grandchildren, cooking out, flea marketing, and her extended family in Tennessee. Following her retirement, she and her husband traveled all over the United States in their Chateau Motor Home.

She is survived by her husband, Raymond Reed, whom she married July 27, 1956; three sons, David Reed and his wife Kathleen, of Hermitage, Stephen Reed and his wife Joy, of West Middlesex, and Daniel Reed, of Valencia, PA; and four grandchildren, Jeff and Matt Reed, Carly (Joshua) Vass and Rebecca (Jerry) Hall.

In addition to her parents, Delores was preceded in death by a sister, Nancy; two brothers, Alvin and James Adams; along with a grandson, Joshua Reed.
