Jesse, Tommy, Al and family,

I called on Christmas to talk to Deb. Instead, Jesse was at the other end of the line telling me the sad news. My heart was broken for the loss of such a warm, carring, loving person. She loved & cared deeply for each of you and for her parents.

I treasure the times I have had to talk with her over these past years, as we remembered times from long ago, catching up on each others children, grand-children, chating about our parents and where we both were now in life.

She has touched so many of us through the years - and now, she will be another Angel from above to watch, love & care for each one of you now and always. May the many stories from all the years you've experienced with her continue to be shared with everyone - so she may live on - in each & everyone of you - forever.

She will be missed - but not forgotten!

Love Always - Betty (Erickson) Reid
