For those of us who entrusted our children to Mrs. Reeves at Kathryn's Christian Academy, we were truly blessed to have her. She showered my son with so much love from three months old until three years old when it was time for him to leave for Pre-K. I will forever hold on to the encouragement and life lessons she shared so beautifully. May God strengthen the family and everyone who loves her! ~Michelle Jackson Funderburg~
