Mountaineer Echo Newspaper Week of July 8, 2004 issue: Services for Geneva Loreta "Reta" BILLINGS were held at 2:00 p.m., Monday, June 28, 2004 at Friendship Baptist Church in Owasso. Burial followed at Woodlawn Cemetery under the direction of Rice Funeral Service. Reta passed away at her home Friday, June 25, 2004. She was 69. Born in Yellville, Arkansas on August 22, 1934 to Lewis and Willie Mae POYNTER WICKERSHAM, Reta was reared and educated in her birth community. She graduated from Yellville High School in 1952. That same year she married Don Edward BILLINGS. Don's military service helped to settle the decision on the timing of the nuptials. While he fulfilled his military obligation, Reta lived with her parents who had relocated to California. She was employed there in retail sales, working for Sears, J.C. Penney and Newberry's. The young couple returned to Arkansas after Don received his honorable discharge in 1954. During this time, Reta learned all about farm work, helping on Don's parents' farm. A year later they returned to California, making their home in Salinas while Don completed his education and Reta supported his efforts with her employment at Newberry's again. Don's career in the oil and gas industry took them next to Melrose, New Mexico. While in Melrose, Reta gave birth to their daughter, Donita, in 1957. In 1960 they moved to Tulsa and eventually made their home in Verdigris in 1995. After moving to Tulsa, Reta went to work for Enterprise School Photo as a printer, a job she enjoyed for almost 30 years. She was a valued employee. Reta's work ethic carried over to her home and community service. She kept up her yard and home, and donated her time and heart to her church as well. She was a member of the hospitality committee and a nursery worker, both activities well-suited to her nurturing, loving personality. Reta enjoyed traveling with her beloved family, and camping at Lake Tenkiller where fishing and skiing were favorite activities. So proud of her grandchildren, Reta always had time to attend their school functions, with her camera in hand to capture those special events. Reta loved company and never failed to feed those who visited at her home. Loving and faithful, Reta's legacy lives on through those who survive. They are her husband, Don, of their home in Verdigris, OK; her son-in-law, Steve HARALSON, and his wife, Sue; her grandchildren, Darin, Cory and Danielle HARALSON, all of Verdigris, OK; her niece, Barbara WAGNER of Edmond; and her sister-in-law, Dorothy WICKERSHAM, of Yellville, Arkansas.
