Obituary for Koreen Daphne Reid

Koreen Reid, 44, of Mt.Pearl, NL, died early Friday morning in hospital in Ontario from complications from Multiple Sclerosis. Her family was by her side.

Koreen was born in Halifax NS to Muriel and (late) Eric Reid. She attended high school in Mt. Pearl and then went on to graduate at Memorial University. She worked as a teacher for a few years in NL before becoming a dental hygienist in NS upon graduation at Dalhousie University. She moved to Ontario in 2002 and married in 2006.

Koreen is survived by her husband Mike Martonfi, her mother Muriel Randell, stepfather Sterling Randell of Corner Brook, and three siblings: twin sister Karen Reid (Alexander Walsh) of NS; brother Chad Reid and sister Rhonda Reid (Charles Copeland) of Ontario; nieces Andrea and Erica; nephews Warrick and Deven; loving aunts, uncles and cousins, stepfamily, numerous friends and home care providers. A special thanks to Dr. Charles Copeland and Dr. Kevin Luces for their excellent care and compassion.

A small gathering of friends and family is to be held in Ontario on Sunday, June 8, from 1-4pm in the home where she lived. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the MS society.

Koreen was a bright light in all of our lives, with her kind spirit, sense of humor, and her perseverance in spite of unspeakable health challenges. She will be greatly missed, never forgotten, and always close in our hearts.

Arrangements entrusted to Barnes Memorial Funeral Home, 5295 Thickson Road N. Whitby, Ontario 905-655-3362
