Deziraye Love Reed

Danville- Deziraye Love Reed, 8, Pooh Bear of Danville went to be with our Holy Father on September 5, 2010 at 12 noon at Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana. Deziraye Love was born June 1, 2002 in Danville. She is the only daughter of Darcey Cottrell and Robert Wayne Reed. Deziraye was our Sweet Angel and we love her. She enjoyed being with her DaDa and he always made her laugh. Her favorite toy was her tubey, we never left home without it. Even though she never spoke a word, we always knew what she wanted and how she felt. Her feet never took a step but yet she rolled wherever she wanted. A beautiful girl and a beautiful smile, many people thought she was lucky to have us, but the truth was we were blessed to have her Deziraye, a true gift from God and our baby forever. She leaves in loving memory forever brothers Robert Jr. II and Antwan I; Grandparents Vivian (Marcus) Brooks of Danville, Robert Pope of Mississippi, Cindy (Troy) Watson, and Timothy Cottrell; Great Grandparents Pearlean Reed of Danville, and James and Judy Cottrell; Special Aunties Shawntea Reed of Danville, Shavonnda and Ladora Atcher, Kenya Smith of Tulsa, OK and TaMikie Smith of Springfield, IL; Special Uncles Nikia and Shavar Reed of Danville, Dusty Cottrell of Mississippi, and Derek Watson; and also Special Godfathers Justin Calvin, Dante Fish Thomas, Steve Bretcha, Jason Tyler and Randall Carter; and many, many numberous cousins, friends and family.
