She will be greatly missed by those she loved and now leaves behind, especially husband, Robert E. Reese; son, Jason (Bethany) Reese; granddaughters, Sara and Lindsay Reese; and special friends, Wanda Snell, Melinda Wilson and Ginny Hendricks.
The family thanks Dr. Mark Kent, Dr. Modupe Kehinde, and the ICU nurses at Tennova Heathcare-Lebanon for saving her life and giving us six more months. We are so thankful for the doctors and nurses at Sumner Regional Medical Center in the Emergency Room and on the 4th floor. We would like to thank HighPoint Hospice for your comfort and compassion as we said goodbye. All of you are our heroes. Finally, thank you to Nashville Cremation Center for your caring guidance in fulfilling her final wishes.
Per her wishes, there will be no service.

April 14, 2016 at 9:37 pmWe are so sorry for the loss of your mother at this time and and the pain of separation that you are feeling. It has been a long road the past 6 months on a monster roller coaster ride of ups and downs. Your mother’s ride has at last ended and I hope she now finds rest. You are so tired and worn out from the mental and emotional roller coaster that you are drained and feel adrift.
Know that you are loved and the numbness will pass. A new day will dawn and you will again smile , remembering the love she had for you and your family. And know that there will be a reunion again. All too soon , as life is short.. even at 969.
God bless you during this time of sorrow and know that HIS hand is there to comfort.

April 14, 2016 at 10:21 pmThe Windows of Time
By Rosemary Tipton Hackney
The windows of time open and close
Revealing Life’s beginnings and Death’s repose.
Memories of yesterday are caught and contained
In our minds to be visited time and again.
Childhood’s secrets, father and mother’s love,
Sun and moon and stars above
Mountains high and canyons wide
Hurt feelings buried inside.
Friends found, friends lost.
Harsh words, a high cost.
Holiday scents, family together
Wishing it would last forever.
But alas, Father Time marches on
And family and friends are soon all gone.
Glimpses of acts on the Stage of Life;
Hours of love and moments of strife.
All that is left is a precious memory
Until we all meet again in Eternity
