Family is starting to make the journey to Texas to your memorial. I am no more ready than I was at 12:50 a.m. December 26th. I miss you so much. I do get comfort when I think of the amazing times we had. I was almost 50 years old and you took me to love as if I were a 5 year old child. You gave me in 6 years the love and compassion I needed all of my childhood. I was blessed with a real family. Complete with extended ones and lots of love. I now have a big brother and 3 wonderful sisters that shared their mom with me. I’m so grateful. Mom I knew you were tired and I tried to prepare myself. One thing for certain, you did it your way and on your terms (Pill). Thanks for loving me. I’ll love you eternally. Rest well Mama. I’ll see you on the other side. I’ll be the one yelling your name.
Forever,
Your dark skinned, big brown eyed other baby girl.
The mere mention of her name evokes a smile. And, if you have known her any length of time, it also awakens wonderful memories of days gone by. If she was your friend, it was for life. You could talk to her about anything; she would listen without judging, offering advice only when asked for. She was more than just a friend, she was a mother, a sister, an aunt, an advisor, a confidant, an artist, a trusted companion, a teacher and the list truly does go on. If Webster had known her when he assembled his dictionary, her picture would be everywhere. Of course I’m speaking of ALICE REAGAN. If you knew her you were blessed; she was a blessing to every life she touched. She was comfortable conversing with the cleaning crew and just as comfortable with the president. It didn’t matter to Alice if you were green from Mars or spoke Jupiterian, you were no different from anyone else. You were always welcome at her house; it was much more than a house though; it was a home.
Stories she told of her life in Texarkana always brought a smile, but the stories she told about Bob and the early years made her eyes sparkle. She shared with her 5 remarkable children the importance of family and friendship. You help others when you can, always without fanfare or expectations.
Heaven is a little brighter and a little more festive. The selfish side of me is so sad that she is gone. We’ll miss you. Ms. Alice! You will always be in our hearts, and we’ll see you when our room is ready.
