I am so sorry to hear about Reba's passing. She was a wonderful "fixture" for me at First Assembly and such a people person! Always a kind word to everyone and especially great with the children. We will miss her and rejoice now that she is with her Heavenly Father. "What a day that will be..." Thank you Reba for your fine example to us all! My thoughts and prayers are with you Rex and your family. Deepest Sympathies, Diane Cronin

Reba was a very special lady in our lives. We loved to sit and visit with her about any number of things. Jan and Reba made a trip together to visit another friend, Rose Ann Etzen in Waukee last year. It was a special time for Jan to be with these two women who were such good friends with each other but no longer able to see each other very often. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Rex, Cindy and Mark and the grandchildren and great grandchildren. Reba proudly showed us their pictures each year. May you be comforted by all the memories.
