Your mom was very influential to many of her church. I will always remember how she could remember every hymn with no hymnal. She was truly a woman of God. Much love and peace to all of your family.
I’m sending my love to all of you.

Reathyl was quite a lady who touched many lives. She was an example to all and will be missed. May she enjoy her mansion in heaven.
Margie, Melody and family,
We are sorry for your loss. Always enjoyed hearing Reathyl tell stories about when she was growing up. She was one of a kind and we will miss her.
Melody, Margie, and all….
Reathyl was an example of a God fearing woman. She would tell you stories that would leave you entertained and awed. She knew so much and always told you something would stick with you. She always had a smile on her face and a kind word in her heart. She was never afraid to tell you that she loved you and God did too. She was good friends with everyone she came in contact with. She never knew a stranger. One could not not love her. She was the best.
When the sunsets and the sun shines it is Reathyl telling you that she is alright and will continue to watch over all of us. If you knew her it was a blessing to you. She will always be loved by many, including myself and my family. RIP Ms. Reathyl. We love you always and forever.
