Obituary of Katherine A. Reid

It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Katherine Ann Reid "Timmy" "Timpster", which occurred on Saturday, May 27, 2017 at the Saint John Regional Hospital. Katherine was born in Saint John, as well as raised and cared for by her loving family for her whole life, and was a daughter of the late Donald and Genevieve (Keleher) Reid. Timmy had an outgoing, kind and funny personality which left anyone who met her feeling blessed. She had numerous funny "one liners". She got to know everything about everyone she met, and never spoke a bad word about anyone. Timmy never let her special needs diagnosis stop her from enjoying life, and was especially interested in puzzles, Barney, and playing many musical instruments. She will be missed by her sister Karen "Babe" Burr (the late Edward); nephews, Chris (Sam) and Matthew (Erika); a niece, Alisha (Brian); great nephews, Noah, Benjamin, Malakai and Greyson; special cousin and caregiver, Cheryl Potter and her son Kyle; best friends and neighbours, Faith Wright, Lisa Lanteigne, Darren Blanchard, Larry Martin; as well as many cousins, friends and all those whose lives she touched along the way.
