Born June 14, 1932 in Blue Island, IL to James L. and Helen R. Reed, Arthur passed away Saturday, October 18, 2014 at his Schaumburg home. He was 82.
Art worked for over 50 years in a variety of industries but it was his pastime activities that gave him the most pleasure. He was a lifetime member of the NRA, a BMW motorcycle enthusiast and a past member of the Board of Directors for
the Lexington Green Condominium Association. His fondest memories were of the hours he spent and the lifelong friends he made at the North Avenue Roller Rink.
Known as Uncle Art by his family and many friends, his greatest joy was spending time with the little "squirts" at any and all family gatherings.
Art is survived by his daughter, Susan (Lee) Fifield of Jacksonville, FL; grandchildren, Colleen Jackson, and Patrick (Ashley) Jackson; great-grandchildren, Amanda and Nicholas Jackson; brothers, James (Sandy) Reed, and Carl Reed; niece, Kerry Lyinn Reed; nephews, James R. (Danielle) Reed, and David J. Reed; grandnieces, Joselyn and Ainsley Reed.
Services will be held privately.
