On Sunday, May 31, 2026, Reba Diane Laws Mashburn, 71, of Marion, passed away at her residence with her family by her side.

A native of McDowell County, she was born March 14, 1955 to the late Carl Laws and Mildred Bradley Laws. A sister, Elaine Harvey, also preceded her in death.

Reba worked at Ethan Allen for over thirty years, and she later retired from Carpenter Decorating in Conover. She attended South Marion Pentecostal Holiness Church when she was able.
