To the Reed family my condolences for the lost of your loved on. I pray God gives you the strength to get through this difficult time. I meet Doug when he worked in the seaford school district. He helped out with my grandkids. He had a way to redirect them when no other staff could. They had a big respect for Mr. Reed. He was truly a man of care and compassion. I use to be overwhelmed and he would always have a encouraging word for me. He touched so many people's life in such a positive way. I know he made a long lasting impact on me and my grandkids. He will be missed greatly. Rest in peace Mr. Reed your work is done take your rest in the father's hand. Thank you for all you did. Gone to soon but you will never be forgotten as you are unforgettable. Sincerely Danielle Horsey
