I have been loved and blessed for nineteen years and 361 days, to have had Raymond Reeves in my life. My family thought of him as a dad and granddad. We had many good times dancing, fishing, cards, domino’s and traveling, especially Dolly Wood and a cruise to Alaska. Family getting to gather on Holidays and crawfish boils and the Good times with Gloria and Charlie on Happy Hill as we called it in Huntsville, TX. Our grandsons that were in armed services enjoyed his war stories and all of us enjoyed his Train and Food stories. He will be missed and his love shall live in my heart forever.
Love you, Aline Kidwell.
Arrangements under the direction of Heights Funeral Home, Houston, TX.
