Mary Elizabeth "Bun Bun" Reeves, 85, of Steubenville, Ohio, passed away on Thursday, November 27, 2025, with her loving son Donnie by her side. She was born on November 13, 1940, a daughter of the late Frank and Mary Romano Prolago. She was a member of Holy Family Catholic Church.
Bun Bun was truly one of a kind--she never missed an opportunity to be spunky.
Her fun spirit, quick wit, and unmistakable spark will live on through the legendary stories that everyone who loved her will continue to share.
Bun Bun was most known for managing Mr. Wiggs during its heyday, where her energy and personality made her unforgettable. She was also a proud and devoted Big Red fan, spending years working in the ticket office and running concession stands with that signature Bun Bun charm.
Preceding Bun Bun in death were her siblings Louis, Frank Jr., Paul, William, Ray, Robert Prolago, Isabelle Bengier, Virginia Smogonovich, Madalyn Fraschetti, Jeanette Bracciale, Anna Stirpe, and Helen Sciaretti.
Bun Bun is survived by her son Donnie (Jackie) Reeves and their children Jack and Trudie.
