Although I've only come to know Ms Reba this past year, I feel as she was a part of my life alot longer. Her sweet personality could only be outshined by the grin she gave me when I stopped in to visit.  For her daughters, I am so sorry for your loss, and so thankful for your bringing her to live at "our place".  She will truly be missed.

diane and i wish to give you our deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother. i always considered her the classic aunt and , as i got older ,a very good friend. she always let me know what was going on in monroe county and with my cousins. hopefully we can stay in touch in the future as we no longer have reba and frances to do it for us. the kids would say we could use the internet and maybe that would be  a good thing .  hope to see you sometime soon.
