Billie Reynolds Obituary

Billie Jane Tramel Reynolds

Our beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend, Billie Jane Tramel Reynolds, went to heaven on June 3, 2020, in Sparks, Nevada. She was born in Levelland, Texas. After graduation she moved to California where she met our dad and then to Nevada to be near family. She was preceded in death by her husband, Bob, in 2017 who were married for 50 years. Jane leaves behind her brother J.C. Tramel (Greta), daughters Lois Long (John) and Elizabeth Louthan (Richard), grandchildren Christopher Long, Matthew Long, Christina Aquiar, great grandchildren Bailey Greene, Brady Long, Deegan and Kaylee Aquiar and many nieces and nephews. Her family would like to thank Brookdale of Sparks for the special care given to this very exceptional lady. She is missed every single day. A small memorial celebration will be held at a later date.

June 12, 2025: Dear Aunt Jane, I miss you and Bob so much! So many good times over the years (since I was born in 1942). You were always so sweet and always had a smile. After you, we were in Hillsboro, TX for Aunt Greta and Uncle J.C.'s Funerals. Your brother (J.C.) was the last one of the 8 siblings and now I am the Patriarch (83) of the 'James & Eva' Tramel family. I hope to remain in that position for a long time! We miss all 8 + 8 spouces that made up the Tramel extended family. Love you and miss you! Tony - {Tramel)-Matin & Peggy Martin

Hi...I just happened to be looking through obituaries and ran across this one of Jane. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I worked at Brookdale and Jane was one of my very favorite residents. She was kind, loving and sincere. I was glad to I got a chance to go back to Brookdale to see her after I left. She was very dear to me....she will be missed!

We called her Aunt Jane, she was the best aunt a person could ask for I rememver her taking care of me soo many times from when I was in grade school til after I had my son. She never had a bad word to say about anyone and always loved to laugh. She was and is a beautiful Lady inside and out and Heaven is lucky to have her. Will miss her forever
