Obituary for Marianne Johnson-Reddick by her children says they're glad she's dead after 'torture'

http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/relationships/obituary-for-marianne-johnson-reddick-by-her-children-says-theyre-glad-shes-dead-after-torture/story-fnet0he2-1226717294314

SIX adult children have written a scathing obituary for their dead mother, saying she made their lives hell and they are glad she's dead.

Nevada woman Marianne Johnson-Reddick died last month aged 78, and her adult children wrote an obituary for their local paper, The Reno Gazette-Journal, which was published on September 10.

But instead of mourning their mother’s death, they revealed that she had been an abusive mother who "tortured them" and said they are relieved her "evil and violent life" is over.

Johnson-Reddick "is survived by her six of eight children whom she spent a lifetime torturing in every way possible," the obituary states.
