While unable to attend the Celebration of Life for Reese, instead I spent some time making a tribute composite in her honor. Rest in Peace Reese ....

A short thought I came up with:

Light rays shine down, I will keep your days bright
Forever I will be around, you won’t be out of my sight

Look in the sky, for the brightest star
I will always be there never too far

Prayer is my new contact, drop me a line
Don’t worry, I am strong and doing just fine ...

I love her quote,

" Some people sit and watch the ocean waves, others jump in and make the waves ! "

A classic Reese comment !

We crossed paths with Reese several times over the last few years.. From the first time meeting her she was always warm and inviting to talk to.. Here's to better times.. RIP Reese. Pic is Reese and Angel a few years back in Clearwater.

Sorry for the loss. I did not know her. I feel bad for her kids. It seemed she was very well liked around and especially very well liked in the boating community. Is there a donation fund or something especially for the kids. Just asking.

Sharkey you always do a very fine job with the pics, posters and such. The quote was very fitting, especially for this boating site, thank you for your time. I would like to meet you and shake your hand next year at the Buffalo Poker Run. Always a job well done on your part. John.

Thank you John.

The originally quote was from a bench at an aquarium I later learned. She may have stated it to a person that told me the quote, but apparently originated from a plaque Reese had seen. Very fitting though....


Yes .

Teresa "Reese" Lewis "Miss GEICO"

Pretty sure Reese was on TV last night on "American Chopper". Showed Paul Sr. down in Key West as a guest of Geico and pretty sure they showed her on the Cig. I just caught it in passing and I no longer have a DVR so I couldn't rewind it but 90% sure they showed her.
