On September 18, 2025; while Patty was anointing her head and praying Psalms 23 and her granddaughter Angie was holding her hand; Patty felt her mother's last heartbeat at 1:25 pm. Minnie was pronounced at 1:45pm by hospice.

Her life here on earth ended due to heart failure and failure to thrive but she entered Eternal Life, Hallelujah!

She was proceeded in death by her mother, Leona Farrier, Father James T. Reese, nephew Dennis Rivers; brother, Marcus L. Reese; grandson, Eric Feagin-Reese; sister Angela Reese; and

more recently on 8/31/25 her niece Vera Wiggins who she leaves to cherish her memories, her three daughters, Lynn Moore (Willie) of Worcester County, Michelle Reese of Suffolk County, and Patricia Samuels (Walter) of Bristol County, her nephew/son, Marcus Reese of Suffolk County, sister Rebecca Wiggins (Willie) of Middlesex County all of Massachusetts; 19 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren, her best friend Nancy Scott, a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and spiritual family members that will forever remember her.
