Her parents were Willard Benjamin Weeks, Sr. and Johanna Melinda Nielson.

Graduated from Davis High School.

Married Ray Holbrook Reed January 10, 1951 in the Salt Lake Temple. They lived in Salt Lake and Woods Cross for a short time, but moved to Bountiful, Utah in 1956 where they built their own home. There they raised four children, Janice (Gary) Campbell, Danny, Don (Rowena) and Jill.

Active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and attended the 11th Ward of the Bountiful Utah East Stake from 1956 to her death.

Preceded in death by her parents, husband, sister Ruth Lucille Weeks, brothers Leslie Eugene Weeks, and Willard Benjamin Weeks, Jr., son-in-law Gary Layne Campbell.

Survived by her sisters Viola M. Wilcox and Shirley L. Anderson (Clarence), her two grandsons Tyrone B. (Marlena) and Gavin B. (Dani) Reed, and seven great-grandchildren who were the special joy of her last few years.

The gospel, scriptures and family were paramount in her life.  She had a strong testimony of Jesus Christ and the Atonement, and she taught that to her family and many friends and investigators over the years.  She also learned to use a computer later in life in order to do her Family History and automate her journals, which she had been faithfully keeping from the age of 22 until a week before she passed.

She taught herself Gregg Shorthand, in order to work and help Ray support the family, from time to time. She kept a clean, orderly house and encouraged her children to do the same.

She leaved a legacy of love, charity and faith that will live on in her descendants.
