Obituary

Harriett Q. Magee of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware passed away surrounded by her family on December 15, 2025.

Harriett was born on February 3, 1939 at home to Pearl and Omar Quillen Sr. Harriett was a graduate of Rehoboth High School, class of 57', and a graduate of Milford Nursing School, 1960. She then embarked on a very long nursing career right in Rehoboth working for Dr. Klingel until his passing. She then stayed there and worked for Dr. Wiltbank. Once she parted Rehoboth, Harriett moved to Lewes to work for Dr. Charles Stanislav until the young age of 80.

Harriett was well known around Rehoboth and when her and her late husband (Dale) purchased a bait/tackle shop on Love Creek, she began selling "local" seafood to many of the restaurants in Rehoboth caught right in Rehoboth/Indian River Bays and the Ocean City area.

Harriett enjoyed vacationing in Virginia and touring the wineries with family. Throughout her life she enjoyed several past times such as just sitting under the shade trees with friends and family or knitting. Harriett also loved to eat out with her friends and co-workers, especially from Dr. Charlie's office.

In addition to her parents, Harriett was preceded in death by her husband Dale, an older brother Omar Quillen Jr. (Debbie) a sister Olive Ann Ward (Fred) and many friends that she used to go out on the town with. She is survived by her son Dale (Amy) her granddaughter Alexandra (Allison) and beloved niece Harriett Michelle Ward.

Harriett will be remembered for her VERY strong work ethic. She did so, even if she was sick.

Services will be at a later time set by the family.
