To the family of John H. Reed,

Our family sends condolences to the Reed family for their loss of a great man. I had the pleasure of meeting John about 6 years ago when he stopped by my hotdog truck in Oakland and we began chatting. It wasn't long before we realized we were second cousins-once removed. Growing up I recall my father Henry and grandfather Gordon Lamoreau speaking fondly of John as Governor of Maine and his dedication to create sustainable, accessible and affordable higher...

I remember John very well and his nice strong speaking voice. He was a wonderful member of the United Parish Church. Joyce Plant (Fort Fairfield, Maine)

Dear Cheryl and Rudy,

I had the pleasure of visiting your dad at North Pond a couple of summers ago with Camilla. His mind was still sharp, and we had a delightful visit. My fondest memory of him was the patience he had when he taught me to dive. When he became governor I remember how proud I was to say that I knew him and his family. He served his state and country well. Maine was blessed by his efforts.

Please accept my sincere condolences.

On a day when we are celebrating elections, I am also celebrating the life of former Governor John Reed who was in office when I was growing up. At that age I didn't have a clue about politics but I was taught to have respect for people. I have very fond memories of going ice skating with the Governer and Mrs. Reed at the Blaine house where the old tennis court used to be. They would come out and skate with us kids and Mrs. Reed would hold our hands as we skated along. As a child it made...

I have wonderful childhood memories at North Pond of my mother and Gov Reed engaged in the 1960's politics and local Maine issues while they sat by the lake soaking up the last of the day''s sun. John Reed's gracious manner and kind spirit lives on. Rest in peace.

Mr Reed was a very sincere man and a very dear friend to all who knew him.I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his many friends and family. I will miss our conversations at breakfast , concerning country music.I have lost a wonderful friend , Bob Elston

To Cheryl & Rudy,
