Mrs. Rose Reaves, 88, of North Richland Hills passed away peacefully into the arms of Jesus on September 15, 2021. She’ll always be remembered as a dear wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend. To know Rose was to love her. She brought so much joy to everyone around her with her quick wit and caring spirit. She always kept everyone smiling with her jokes and silly sayings. She will be missed dearly.

Rose was born in Tolar, Texas and graduated from Tolar High School in 1950. She was a woman of many talents working various jobs over the years and at one time even had her own newspaper column titled “Rambling Rose” filled with fun facts about her life. But her favorite job was being a mother to her three daughters.

Rose was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, Frank. She is survived by her three daughters, Deborah (Gene) Braswell, of Granbury, Janie ( Peter) Giardina of Rowlett, and Joanie (Lon) Diehl of Allen as well as 7 Grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren.
