Marie Ann, a twin daughter of Andrew and Anna (Uhlenkamp) Ebensteiner was born on October 24, 1932, on the family farm at rural Starkweather ND. She grew up and was educated in the Starkweather area, graduating from Starkweather High School. She worked for a time at Fairmont Creamery and as a telephone operator for Northwestern Bell Telephone Company.
Marie was united in marriage to her beloved Daniel Reardon on June 19, 1956 and established their home in Devils Lake. Daniel’s work would take them to live in Fessenden and later Jamestown and eventually a return to Devils Lake which they called home through the years.
Marie dedicated her life to caring for her family. After the children had grown, and Marie was in her 70’s, that loving, caring heart began working at the Heartland Care Center in the Dietary Department. She was known as the most patient and caring feeder for those entrusted to her. She was considered one of the departments best and most dependable workers. She truly loved her work; it was a vocation of love.
In her younger years, Marie enjoyed sewing and knitting and now being able to care for grandchildren and great grandchildren brought her much joy. She treasured every moment spent with family, her dear sister Anna and precious friends. Family called Marie “amazing”. Marie called herself “blessed”.
She was a faithful member of St. Joseph Catholic Church and attended daily Mass whenever she could. She is so very loved, will be forever missed and forever in the hearts of those she loved.
Marie is survived by her children Laurie Nelson, Grand Forks ND, Rick (Jeanne) Reardon, Devils Lake and Kevin Reardon, Williston ND; 5 grandchildren Paul Dahlen, Chad (Hilary) Dahlen: Casey (Carly) Reardon, Jason (Keli) Reardon: Mikaela Reardon; five great grandchildren Aubrey and Avery, Cahlan and Wyatt, Cooper and a precious one on the way; sister Anna Koch, Devils Lake; sister-in-law Geraldine Ebensteiner also Devils Lake and many nieces, nephews and their families.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Daniel on Sept. 8, 1997, twin sister Marion Heisler and brother Wilfred Ebensteiner.
