Floe Nadine (Harp) Reed, age 92, of Ozark, passed away peacefully on Sunday, December 11, 2022, at Ozark Riverview Manor. Nadine was born on October 12, 1930 in Ash Grove, MO to Roy and Myrtle (Grover) Harp.

She attended early elementary school at Ash Grove followed by Sequiota schools at Galloway. She finished her educational years at Rogersville High School where she participated on many girls' sports teams.

On January 26, 1948 Nadine and James (Jim) W. Reed were united in marriage. This union was blessed by four daughters. Nadine was a loving and nurturing wife, mother and grandmother. She was a great cook. Not only did she cook for her family, but for many hay and thrashing crews that helped her and Jim with farm harvests.

One of Nadine's first jobs was working in the cafeteria at Lily Tulip in Springfield, MO. She was the sides and salad cook. She worked for Lily Tulip for nearly 20 years before leaving to help full time on the farm. After her youngest two daughters were in upper elementary, Nadine went back to work, this time for the Springfield School system mainly working in the Kickapoo High School cafeteria. A few years later, she and Jim moved to Rogersville, at which time, she began working in the Logan Rogersville Elementary school as a lunch lady. Nadine eventually became the manager for the cafeteria there. She enjoyed feeding the students, of which some of them were her own grand and great grandchildren. She also created long and lasting friendships with the other members of the cafeteria team. Nadine retired from the Rogersville School system in 1995 after 12 years of service.

Nadine was baptized late in life and has been a member of Harmony Baptist Church in Rogersville, for several years.
Throughout the years Nadine enjoyed spending time with her daughters and granddaughters as an active 4-H Foods/Cooking leader in Greene and Christian counties. She was also a loyal spectator at many Rogersville and Ozark softball, baseball, football and basketball games, watching grandchildren and their friends play sports. She also enjoyed watching and following the Springfield and St. Louis Cardinals baseball teams.
Nadine loved her family, her people and her babies very much.

Survivors include her daughters, Teresa Fielden (Steve) of Rogersville, Terena Reed of Ozark, Beverly Berry (Alan) of Ozark and Tonya Ferrier (Randy) of Rogersville; as well as grandchildren JA Fielden, Tammy Utke, Allison Fielden, Leslie Fielden, Missy Smith, Erin Beaver, Briana Bates, Jarrett Berry, Amber Stricker, and Matraca Hill; along with 17 great-grandchildren, 4 great-great grandchildren; and a brother-in-law Harold Reed (Pat) of Springfield.
Nadine was preceded in death by her loving husband, Jim, of 45 years, on June 4, 1993. In addition, to her husband, she was preceded in death by her parents, her brother Floyd Harp and sister Freda Bly.

The family would like to express their appreciation and gratitude to the nurses and staff of Riverview Residential Place (for over 5.25 years), Ozark Riverview Manor and Haven Hospice for their care of Nadine.
