Marguerite
passed into
eternal life on
in Seaside,
Oregon.
Marguerite
was born
October
Marguerite
25, 1918 in
Reed
Baker City,
Oregon. She
was the daughter of Gaston
and Elizabeth Dieudonne.
She attended St. Francis
Academy in Baker City
until her freshman year.
She then went to Forest
Ridge Convent in Se-
attle, Washington until her
graduation in 1936. She
attended San Francisco
College for Women and
graduated in 1940. She
received her Masters De-
gree in Social Work from
Catholic University in
Washington, D.C. in 1942.
Upon completion of her
schooling, Marguerite
went to work for Catholic
Charities in San Francisco,
California. On January 16,
1943 she married Preston
Reed in Washington, D.C.
They lived there for six
months and then moved to
Fort Worth, Texas, where
Preston was working as a
Navy officer. They spent
one year there until Preston
went oversees. Margue-
rite moved to Palo Alto,
California and worked as a
social worker for the police
department in 1944. Upon
Preston’s return from ser-
vice in 1946, they moved
to Baker City, Oregon.
After returning to Baker
City Marguerite went to
work for Catholic Charities
as an adoption caseworker.
She worked for them from
1942 until her retirement
in 2000. During this time
she also worked for 15
years as a social worker for
the Baker School District.

many years. She was
selected Legacy Woman

was also on the Citizens
Review Board and the
board of the Oregon
Catholic Conference. She
lived a busy, active life, a
life devoted to service to
her family, her church, and
her community. She was
a woman of great faith;
she loved the church and
valued her friendships with
other parishioners, priests,
and bishops. She enjoyed
international travel and
visited many wonderful
places with Preston and her
children. One of her most
cherished memories was
a trip to the Vatican for a
private visit with the Pope.
Marguerite was proud of
the fact that she had given
over 148 pints of blood to
the local Blood Bank. She
felt this was an extremely
important service that
should be done by every-
one who was able.
Marguerite spent her
last years in Portland and
Seaside, close to all her
children. She always
loved being at the beach so
living in Seaside brought
her a lot of joy.
She was preceded in
death by her husband of 54

Reed-Lomax, her brother
Roger Dieudonne, and her
parents Gaston and Eliza-
beth. She is survived by

daughter Vonie and her
husband Larry Aeschli-
