Arthur Lee Reed, 68, of Pompano Beach, Florida, passed away peacefully at home on August 25th, 2025, with his beloved wife, Lesa A. Stahl Reed, by his side.

He was born in New Brighton on March 31st, 1957, a son of the late Hal Emmet and Madolyn E. Reed. He is survived by his loving wife, Lesa Reed, his brother, Emmet Hal Reed (Darlene) of Gibsonia, Pennsylvania, his niece, Amanda McQuiston (Travis) of Ellwood City, his nephew, Zach Reed of Gibsonia, his sister-in-law, Ronda Cathcart (Joel) of Fremont, California, his nephews, Eian Cathcart of Portland, Oregon, and Kolbe Cathcart of Arcadia, California and many cherished cousins and friends. Arthur attended Penn State University, Beaver Campus in Monaca and went on to build a long and dedicated career as a Director of Purchasing at the Riverside Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he worked for over 34 years. His strong work ethic, generosity, and sharp sense of humor made him not just a respected colleague but a treasured friend to many. Arthur married the love of his life, Lesa, and together they shared 24 beautiful years filled with love, laughter, and countless unforgettable shared adventures. To Arthur, Lesa wasn’t just his partner: she was everything. He was a deeply devoted husband, and Lesa meant the absolute world to him. Arthur was a member of the Loyal Order of Moose Lodge in Pompano Beach, Florida, for over 19 years. Arthur lived a life rooted in service, fellowship, and compassion. Whether through charitable efforts, leadership, or simply showing up when someone needed a hand, he embodied the spirit of the Moose in every way. Even after stepping down due to his battle with cancer, his impact within the Lodge continued to resonate. His contributions will be remembered with deep gratitude and enduring respect by all who had the privilege of serving alongside him. Of course, Arthur’s professional accomplishments and community involvement tell only part of his story. To know Arthur was to love him. He had a gift for making people feel seen, heard, and valued. He didn’t just walk into a room: he lit it up. He didn’t just make friends, he made family, wherever he went. He had a heart bigger than most. He would give you the last shirt off his back without a second thought, always putting others before himself and always showing up when it mattered most. To know Arthur was to know laughter, kindness, and compassion in its purest form. Arthur was a die-hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan through and through and never missed watching a single game. He could talk football for hours, and his loyalty to the black and gold was legendary among those who knew him.

A memorial service to celebrate Arthur’s life will be held on Saturday, October 25th, at 11 a.m. at Noll Funeral Home, 333 Third Street, Beaver, who was in charge of his arrangements. Afterwards, a celebration of life will commence at Lance’s Port & Pub in Darlington, Pennsylvania. As Arthur often said, and truly lived by:
“We’re not here forever, so do what you enjoy and what makes you happy every day.” Arthur will be deeply missed by all who had the honor of knowing him.
