Anyone who feels the need to leave comments to this story that consist of anything other than heartfelt sympathy, Shame On You! Mrs. Reed was an amazing wife, mother and woman, and her family is devastated by this loss.

To the 2 ppl above: neither of u knew this precious lady. She did not hv her phone to text, she was NOT a drinker, it was her grandaughters 1st birthday. Theres another version of how the acccident happened. If she did cross over the line it was most likely medical related. You people do NOT need to post negativity on here. Her family is having an aweful time.
