Mildred Duke wrote on Jan 30, 2019:

" To the Reid Family, "Death leaves a heartache that words cannot fill, but love leaves memories for the wound to heal." She will truly be missed. I've always admired your mom's quiet demeanor and her caring and selfless nature. She always made you feel welcome and at home. Her love was abundant. She welcomed me and my family with open arms and a warm embrace. Her laugh and smile were contagious. That same laugh and smile I see in all of you. So with a heavy heart I say to you, "rejoice and celebrate your amazing MOM for she is with us always and forever in our hearts and memories." "Love you, Mom!" Love, Mildred, Pete, Chris & Morgan Duke "
