Conrad Reddish (68) was born May 30, 1945, in Baltimore, MD to John and Margaret Reddish, and departed December 1,2013 at The Baltimore Washington Medical Center, after a prolonged illness and a short survival following a medical procedure. Conrad joined Macedonia Baptist Church of Baltimore City at an early age. His loved of music began to shine soon thereafter. He joined the Youth Choir and later became a member of the Kaye Burke Chancel Choir. Connie, as he is fondly called, was the younger of two gifted piano players and he was devoted to his faith and music. After dinner, for at least fifteen years, he and his brother John gave a Sunday afternoon re- cital at their Aunt Pauline's house. He studied music at Collins' Chambers Music Studio. He loved clas- sical jazz and religious music which led into his profession as church pianist for many churches in the area. A uniquely energetic, polished and soulful style came from his hands and he often spoke of playing in a "jazz gig" in his early years. His later life was reflected in his religious training as a member of The Church of The Redeemed. He is well remembered for caring for his mother and grandmother, visiting family in many states and his quips about everyday life. Family members often chuckled about his "Ray Charles" style stomp when play- ing jazz; and his quizzical smile as he turned to the audience for approv- al-and we always lookedfor that smile and laughed. He overcame many obstacles in his life as his intent was to always walk with God. He leaves precious memories with his brother, John Reddish; sister-in- law, Elzora Reddish; nieces, Crystal Cox, Rashida and Jamilah Rowe; nephews, Rodney Reddish and Jeremy Cox; cousins, Geraldine, Carol and Barron Coe and other relatives and friends.
