Connie Louise Reid November 09, 1949 – October 14, 2019 Share this obituary Sign Guestbook| Memorial Donation Connie Louise Campbell Reid passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by family on Monday, October 14, 2019, after a long courageous battle with cancer. Connie was born on November 9, 1949 in Aberdeen, WA to William O. Campbell and Nancy J. Campbell of Aloha, WA. Connie attended schools in Hoquiam, graduating in 1968 from one of the largest graduating classes. She married Eugene Patrick Reid on July 16, 1966 in Hoquiam, WA, where they made their home and raised two children, Tricia and Keith. She later attended Grays Harbor College earning her associate degree and furthered her education by earning her bachelor’s degree in accounting. Shortly after college graduation, she began working for ITT Rayonier in both their Hoquiam and their Seattle offices as a log accountant, retiring after 30 years. She made many life-long friends during this time. She later went back to work for Alcan Forest Products LP for Roger Redifer and continued working until March of 2019, only leaving due to her illness. She loved to work and would always say, “maybe just one more year, then I’ll retire”. While not working, Connie loved camping, traveling, (especially her trips to Hawaii and many summer family trips to Reno), spending time in her garden, reading, knitting, spending time with her two beloved dogs, Coco and Morgan and most of all, spending time with her family. Her most favorite time of year was Christmas, when her family would be together. Connie is survived by her loving husband of 53 years, Eugene Patrick Reid at the family home in Central Park, WA, her two children, Tricia (John) Parsons of Montesano, WA, Keith (Paula) Reid of Cosmopolis, WA, her grandchildren Dani (Zac) Andrews of Hoquiam, WA, Amber Carner of Las Vegas, NV, John Ramsey of Shelton, WA, Maranda Reid of Lacey, WA, JT (Ivelisse) Skipper of Olympia, WA, Jordan Skipper of Cosmopolis, WA, her sister, Karen (Larris) Vlach of Spanaway, WA, her brother Gary (Lori) Campbell of Kansas City, MO and her sister Susan (Richard) King of Port Orchard, WA. Connie was preceded in death by her younger sister, Carolyn Rought of Port Orchard, WA and her parents, William and Nancy Campbell of Port Orchard, WA. Connie was forever grateful for all the love and support of family and friends during her brave battle and especially grateful for the endless loving care received by her husband, Pat, her sister Karen and her daughter Tricia. Please join the family on November 23, 2019 at 12:00 pm for a Celebration of Life at the Log Pavilion in Aberdeen, WA. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the American Cancer Society. Connie was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend.
