  23. Billy Don Hendrick's story retold by Rudolph PriceRudolph was just full of stories about life, or his perspective of life. While we were sitting on that long vinyl couch in the living room Rudolph was talking of Billy Don and his acquaintance with a quiet, thinking black man he worked with. The black man observed the boss man and those actions told of one pretty foolish. The black man's comment to Billie Don was: If a man know that he don't know then he alright.But, if he don't know that he don't know you can't do nothing with him.Rudolph was just quoting a proverb from the bible in his own language. His observation of people was enlightening to me.

  26. The scary dead snakeRudolph was full of tales. This one in particular he told so vividly that I made a mental picture of the event and it still makes me chuckle. He and some of the boys were clearing some land and had stopped to rest. He and Bull were standing around and Rudolph noticed a dead snake under Bull's feet. Rudolph just nudged Bull to step away from the snake. But when Bull glanced at what he was hovering over he went straight up off his feet, then to hollering and possibly dancing. As Rudolph was retelling this story to me, he got so tickled at Bull's response to the snake he could not stop laughing for quite a while. I don't remember the straight-faced Rudolph ever being that animated over an event. Just watching Rudolph laugh made you feel like you were there seeing Bull 'pull out all stops' to get away from a dead snake.

  28. So sorry for your loss. He was a fine man and enjoyed working with him on several occasions through the years.

  35. Rudolph Price was a great man. With bright blue eyes he would look you in the eyes like an eagle. He rebuilt a Dam for our family just this last summer, in over 100 degree heat. I offered him cold water, and he said that he only drinks water when he wakes up, and when he goes to bed. He was not even sweating. God will be glad to have a man like him in Heaven. God bless you Rudolph!

    When my 52 year old younger sister passed away we couldn't have fathomed the grief her 15 year old would be going through. She wanted to be involved in her mom's service planning Reeder-Davis employees were very patient and listened to her every wish. For that I am most grateful. Thank you for the services you provide our small community...we are blessed to have you as part of our town.

    Years ago my parents made the decision that when their time came they wanted Reeder Davis to handle their burial services, So as hard as it is to lose your parents their time to go did come and when it did, We relied on Reeder Davis to help our family through the arrangements that needed to be made and all I can say is their commitment, compassion and their understanding made such a difficult process much easier. Our funeral director Amy, from our first meeting to our last was so kind, She shared in our laughter of funny memories and she shared in our tears seeing our grief. My sister suddenly passed away a month after my dad and again, Kris and Amy were there to help us and we were so grateful. Kris, Thank you for the care you gave to us and for being so kind and thoughtful. I will never forget everything that all of you did for my family .

    Reeder handled my father in laws services and did it with so much compassion. We were at a loss with what to do first and Amy was amazing at guiding us. They treated us just like family and we will always be grateful for that.

    For such as sad occasion we could not have asked for any better. The facilities were great, the staff very caring. Everyone did everything possible to make this the best experience possible. Even the slideshow had a personal touch that was initiated by the staff. I am so very grateful for the care and services we received.

    From the time they picked up my wife from the hospital and then through the entire process and even today, they have remained friendly, courteous, and most helpful with all our needs. Working with our insurance, planning the service, providing helpful suggestions, and taking care of tiny details we had not thought Reeder-Davis Funeral Home was wonderful, and Mary was so professional, one of the best. Their care made our loss a little easier to bear. Thank you so much, James Bynum & Family

    I just want to thank the staff at Reeder Davis for handling my mothers’s final arrangements beautifully. Kris was extremely compassionate and helpful throughout this untimely and unexpected event. Everything was flawless and exactly how my mother would have wanted her final wishes carried out. Planning a funeral is never easy but it definitely helps when your loved one is in the care of caring and professional hands. Thank you 🙏 Shawna

    The McKinney, The McCain, & The Hill Families would like to sincerely thank the staff at Reeder Davis in Hughes Springs for the excellent services they provided to us in the death of our Mama, Dorothy McKinney. Mary went above & beyond in helping us to prepare our Mama for visitation. Amy helped us in each & every need that we had. You could not ask for a kinder man at the cemetery than Wayne. To each person that helped, we appreciate ALL that you did... Thank you, again!

    Reeder-Davis Funeral Home, Inc. in Linden and Chris were there for me and my family when Keith passed away. Chris is so caring and thoughtful and was able to help me make it through the entire process of caring for Keith and my family until the final burial. He made the journey of death so much easier by his respect for our needs and his compassion for our pain and sorrow. I have known his staff for a long time and they also helped lighten our sorrow by their outpouring of love and compassion. Reeder-Davis also took care of my precious mom when she passed away three years after Keith. I still hug Chris and thank him whenever I can for helping me through losing loved ones.
