Harvie Lee Reed

Harvie Lee Reed was born on August 3, 1917, to Zeb and Pearl (Hembree) Reed in Cane Hill, Arkansas. He departed this life on June 26, 2006, at Stilwell, Oklahoma, at the age of 88 years, 10 months and 23 days.

Harvie grew up and resided in the Morrow, Arkansas, area until he married Vada Wilhite Howard on March 14, 1973. They made their home in Westville, Oklahoma, where they lived happily for 33 years. Harvie was a farmer and rancher by trade, raiding both chickens and cattle. He enjoyed bird hunting, especially with his Irish Setter, Zeke, fishing and attending church services.

He "peddled" fresh produce for many years and cherished the friends he made. Many children and adults alike know him as the "Appleman."

He proudly served his country over three years as a Military Transport Policeman during the Second World War. His tour of duty took him to Alaska, through Central Europe and earned him three service medals.

Harvie valued serving his Lord and attended services almost every night when he was able. He most recently attended the Faith Holiness Church in Baron, Oklahoma.

Preceding him in death were his parents and sisters, Leona Patterson and Oleta Swain.

He is survived by his wife Vada of Westville, one brother, Thurman Reed and wife Phyllis of Lincoln, Arkansas; two daughters, Wilma Overturf of Westville, Oklahoma and Pamela Stephens and husband Gerald Bert of Baron, Oklahoma; five grandchildren, Debra Wilson and husband Jay of Cornelious, North Carolina; Dwayne Eagleton and wife Tammy; Greg Eagleton and wife Kim; Philip Stephens and wife Shanda; Penny Meredith and husband Steven, all of Westville, Oklahoma, eight great-grandchildren who he loved and adored; Harvie is also survived by seven nieces and nephews; as well as a host of friends and loved ones.
