I’m so sorry for you loss my friend.
My beautiful Aunt, you taught me so much! How to clear rocks from a garden bed…..though to be truthful I thought you were trying to kill Becky and myself… you taught me how to can, peaches, tomatoes, snap beans, black eyed peas. Also how to sew. You led by example and none of the Ford kids had a better example than you and Uncle Dave, your long marriage, through tough times and good times and lengthy separations. You amazed me working on the Alaska pipeline and later becoming a nurse. There was nothing that you could not do. I am so very thankful you were my Aunt. I will miss you forever and I know we will meet again. Until then rest well and in peace!
I am so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for loving and caring for David Douglas. He is a fine man because of you. How he loved you and so proud of you. All the neat and nice stories heard about you makes us not forget you. Thank you for the nice memories. You will be forever in our hearts.
I will always cherish the memories growing up with Aunt Reba. Every summer we would take vacations to Clarksville , Reba and her family would always make those trips so much fun. Rest in peace Reba, forever in our hearts and memories.
