I am so sorry to hear about Reid's passing. I had the pleasure of being a classmate of Reid's at Memorial Hospital's RT class in 1972-73 and have fond memories of her smile and witty personality. Several years ago she took care of my father when he was needing ventilatory support. It sure made me feel better knowing he was in such good hands. I know she touched many of us along the way. May she rest in peace.

- David Thompson, Carlsbad, CA

Reid, we had so many things yet to do. I just saw you at Christmas time, and you can't be gone yet because we were making plans to get together this year. You will be missed intensely not only by your family, but by all those whose lives you've touched even briefly. I miss you. Love, Michele

Angel’s Wings, Reid had strength That couldn’t be bought While others would whimper, She stayed strong and fought. If she was suffering, Nobody would know. Well years passed, And minutes flew Her time was getting shorter, As her love for life grew. Well one day, God asked her To go get her wings And join him in paradise Doing heavenly things. Her friends would all miss her, her family, too. That charisma, that smile Making each day new Everyday I wake up And I pray to her loud, “Reid babe, I hope You’re having fun In the clouds.” Thank you Reid for all the great talks, your words of wisdom and that beautiful smile. You will never be forgotten...

Whenever you saw Reid, no matter how long it had been, she would smile, say 'hey baby' and give you hug like no other! Friends since my first day in MST way back in 1992 and die hard ever since. We share the same birthday and a love of 'Dragon Rolls'. I will forever miss that raspy voice, that red hair and your sweet smile! Reid, you will forever be in my heart. My prayers are with your guys Reid! Watch over them! Everyone who knows and loves you knows life here won't be the same without you!
