Wilbur Ira Reid Sr.

He was a great coworker and friend to me .

My Dearest Brother,

Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving,seems to be
pushed aside and Christmas rushing in.
No longer does it seem to be the time
of year when we think of things we are
most thankful for. This morning I have
been reflecting on the past months and
I know it is a time to give thanks. As
we join hands and make our circle, we
cannot give thanks this that it is not
broken. We will be missing you. I and the family will miss your blessing...

My Dearest Brother,
I begin my day by thanking God for the
mornings rising and saying good morning
to you. The day seems so still and such
a quietness even with the television or
radio turned on. The telephone is always ringing constantly and I know I
will pick it up and hear you say "Hey
Babe, What's Up." But then I realize
it will not be. I hear you say read
the 23rd Psalms and so I do. I think
of some of the corny things we talked

To the Reid Family:

The sorrow of the faithful is not that of permanent loss, but the tender sense of sadness that comes in saying good-bye for now to someone we love. May today's sorrow give way to the peace and comfort of God's love.

R.I.P. BIG WIL!

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

My Dearest Brother,
I am sitting here trying to get through
the day and I know God is going to help
me through, but right now it seems so
hard. You know John, chapter 14 is one
of my favorite verses in the bible and
each time I see you I recite it because I know in my heart there is a
place for you. The outpouring of love
and support shown you through your
illnesses and your homegoing were
just so beautiful, I know we can all
hold on to...

Geraldine and the Reid Family,
Words can't express our genuine love and concern for you and your family.
Wilbur had such a zest for life. He was a dear friend, whom we'll truly miss.
His Homegoing Celebration was a tremendous testament to the life he lived.
Hold on to God's unchanging hand and let his love surround you with a peace that surpasses all understanding.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
