A celebration of her life will be held at a future date.
Vanita Kay Reed, age 78, passed away on January 3, 2024.
She was born, and raised in Bellingham, WA, where she married her childhood sweetheart, Keith Reed. Vanita worked as a cake decorator with the Fair Market until her retirement.
Vanita is survived by her 4 children and their spouses: Connie and Richard Moreau, Clint and Karen Reed, Heidi and Donald Forbes, and Becky Reed. She is predeceased by her husband, Keith, and her parents, Lyle and Rena Clapper, and brothers, Wayne and Lyle Jr. Clapper, and sister, Sherry Partridge.
Vanita’s family also included loving grandchildren, great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
Vanita enjoyed a full life tending to her home and spending time with family and friends. She enjoyed many creative pursuits including painting, cake decorating, sewing, crocheting, and crafts, many of which she also sold in her cottage business. She made yet another friend every time she met someone, and she was always giving to others. Her heart was full of kindness, and children immediately felt love, safety and security with her.

Memories
From Anonymous
It is with deep sadness and heartfelt love that I read of Vanita's passing. I know she will be missed so much not only by her family, but by anyone she came in contact with. I have throughly enjoyed serving Vanita, Keith, and their family over the many years at Dimitri's Restaurant. They always brightened my work day with their laughter and love. I also have a kitty that I got from them and I always refer to Vanita as her human grandma...whenever she was in Vanita would always inquire about Misty (cat). We also have memories of the Reed Family being on our son's paper route ( back in the day) and they were always one of the most kindest and generous people he did business with. Thank you Becky for coming into tell me your Mom's time was near. While that was hard to hear, I felt honored to be praying for her and the family. Vanita was a beautiful woman inside and out. Much love and continued prayers to you all. Most Sincerely, Barb & Steve Rideout

I was saddened to read of the passing of Vanita. She was such a nice lady. My condolences to her entire family. I'm sure Keith was waiting to welcome her into heaven.
