Gene, It will be hard thinking back on the old neighborhood without thinking of Reeda. She was such a great friend and added so much fun to all we encountered. Even though we all scattered throughout the US, we remained good friends. I know she will be missed a lot by all who had the pleasure to know her. My prayers are with you and the girls. Love and hugs and God bless you all.
