My condolences to Reece's family.

Growing up in Union Valley in the 1950's, I met Reece and many of his family members including his father Art and grandfather Tom. I was in the same school year as Reece's brother, Russ. What a truly fine family! I spent many hours as a kid chatting with Reece's grandfather who was the proprietor of the small Amoco gas station located on Route 88 at the Brownsville Road intersection. That building would become Reece's generator and starter motor business before he moved it to Library.

May Reece now enjoy our Lord's company and his family be comforted knowing he was a good person and honest businessman.
