Alice Reed, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alva Reed was born at Lost Cabin, Wyoming; on March 10, 1904. When she was nine years old the family moved into the Big Horn Basin. Since then her life has been spent at Tensleep, Thermopolis, Worland and Manderson.
Her life of seventeen years was crowded so full of the joy of living so full of loving, helping friendship to all those about her, so full of eager happiness in every minute that it does not seem short to those who knew her. Rather we are glad for each moment that we had her among us, to teach us the richness and realness of life, to show us what a friend could be.
And we think of her, going on in the joy of the life to come, it is not as though she was gone far. Instead she has brought the other world very near to us, as we feel our love go out to her in each dear memory. And at the thought of her, her love comes back to us, to help and cheer us with the same loving understanding that she always had.
And so for very love of her, her going makes all the world seem dearer because; she so loved and lived this life. The mountains will be friendlier, the great sagebrush land less lonely, because of the memory of a dear fearless little comrade, riding with all the gladness of life across the country she loved. The family wishes to thank the neighbors and friends for their kindness and sympathy extended in the illness and death of their little daughter and sister Alice.
