Buck and Mike so sorry to hear about Mr Reed passing away. Bless his heart. I was just talking to Thomas about a month ago right after his mother in law passed and he was telling me that Reed was having trouble with dementia. Said he was wanting his keys to drive and everything. He’s going back to be with his wife and I think that’s where he wants to be. I will be praying for all of you and God bless.
