Las Vegas, NV
Dr. Juliann "Julie" Theresa Reakes passed from this life and on to Heaven on the 26th of January, 2013. She was born 12-17-1927 in Troy, New York.

She is survived by son, Casey G. Reakes of Las Vegas, NV; her loving daughter Patti Reakes-Collins, son-in-law Brent Collins of Odessa; and grandsons Blaise and wife Kristen of College Station, Logan Collins of Ft.

May God grant you always...a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering angel so nothing can harm you, laughter to you, faithful friends near you, and whenever you pray...Heaven to hear you. Until we meet again...you are missed and there is an empty space left in many hearts!

I worked with Julie at Hendrick for many years and she was a mentor to me when I went to RN school. She was one of the kindest people I ever met. I loved Julie and she will be missed by so many. She made a difference in so many people's lives. My prayers will be with the family as you grieve and may I thank you for sharing Julie not only with me, but with so many others.

I worked with Dr. Reakes at Betty Hardwick MH/MR. She was always compassionate and caring towards the clients that we served. She will be missed.
