I don't even know where to begin...such a large portion of my life was spent at Reed Hill with Reed, Debby, and Parker and the fond memories I have of them are too numerous to count. Reed was such an outgoing and generous human being! He had a wicked sense of humor and a HUGE heart! He was larger than life, and I can't believe he's gone. Debby and Park - I'm not going to make any trite remarks. Just know I love you both, and Scott and I will be there in any way we can for you guys.
