to dear Reenie's family, as I have spoken with my sisters, daughter, and my cousin Lynn Finner, we all remember being completely enveloped in Reenie's immense love and care for us, as we were family to her, and she to us. When you were hugged by Reenie, you were HUGGED all around! I hear her laughter and see her smile in my mind, and her simple joy in all her "kids". I remember watching her work the wringer washer in the kitchen at my grandparents, Lillian and Jim Maden, and once in a while she would let me help her with the washing, hanging and folding. She was always willing to take a rest and chat with me when I came to visit as an adult. I wish you all blessings and comfort in recalling a life well lived, by a woman who was good and kind to all.
