Thomas Jefferson Reeder

You don't know you Thomas but you seemed like you were a great man and still loved.I jog up to your bench in Eastwood almost every day and spend 20 minutes with you looking at the beautiful world we live in. Thank you Mr Reeder

Even a french cowboy knows about mister Tom.What to say?
Little apéritif,nice food with good talking,then out in the garden looking at the stars,smoking cigarettes & appreciating a glass of gin & tonic.wasn't it a nice way of life?
Good-bye Tom.
What i enjoy the more in this housse , is the tv in the cave.
My heart with you my friends , Erich , Jeff , Heidi , Thad & Mary.

With my deepest sympathy to the entire family and friends.

I will always remember my cousin, TJ with great fondness. I have wonderful memories of our meetings in Tahlequah, Glendale, CA and Portland. My prayers and thoughts are with TJ and his family - I mourn with them.

Reeder Family, Wishing you peace at this time of sorrow. May the many fond memories you shared comfort your family. My prayers are with your family. From your California Cousin, Lynda (Thomas) Campbell (grand-daughter of Agnes Smets Thomas and Claude Thomas)

I never knew what a yellow dog democrat was until Aunt Jane explained it to me - but clearly Uncle TJ was one of the best! The world will miss him.
love - Lesley and Rick

I remember Mr. Reeder as the kind neighbor who once found our lost cat and who would always chat with us kids as we passed his house on our way to Roosevelt grade school.
My thoughts are with the Reeder family.

The Reeder residence was the first place I ever saw an adult male play a role in preparing family meals. For me, in my early twenties, that was quite an eye-opener. Tom gracefully planned meals, shopped for groceries and prepared the food. Wow! The food actually tasted good, too. That a male could do any of these activities was a new paradigm for me.

Coming from a family where meals were eaten on bar stools, TV blaring, it was utterly fascinating for me to be included in a Reeder...

Dear Reeder Family,
Tom raised a son who became one of my favorite people in life. Obviously Erich came from good stock as Tom's spirit is brightly shown in him. I had the pleasure of being invited into your Medford home a few years ago. Tom made a fantastic dinner and we drank and laughed. They say life is about having a good time and being happy. I think he accomplished his mission. Thank you for giving me the gift of being able to meet him. My deep condolences go out to Erich, Thad,...
