Born in New Castle, Virginia on August 2, 1924 to Ralph Wiley and Hattie Belle Hughes Goode. She grew up on the family farm before attending Virginia Polytechnic Institute, majoring in Home Economics
and graduating in 1945.
Following graduation she married fellow student Robert Floyd Reubush, Jr. that August. The couple moved to Philadelphia where Harriet was a dietitian at Germantown Hospital. In 1948 they moved to Alexandria, Virginia, to Spartanburg, South Carolina for a short period before returning to Alexandria where they raised two daughters. Harriet taught kindergarten in Fairfax County for over 20 years, her true calling.
Harriet will be remembered for her love of family, friends, children, her sweet smile, graciousness, strong faith and unselfishness. She was a special soul and will be missed by all who knew her.
She and her husband were charter members of Bush Hill United Presbyterian Church and volunteered for Meals on Wheels after retirement. She was a member of White Memorial Presbyterian Church after moving to Raleigh in 2007.
She is survived by her daughter, Lynne and husband Dave Anderson of Fraser, Colorado and Sonora, Mexico, daughter Nancy and husband Terry Brenneman of Raleigh; grandson, Carter Brenneman of Raleigh; granddaughter, Carrie and husband Jay Galloway of New York City and great-granddaughters, Celia and Eliza Galloway of New York City.
