Patricia Reanee Knighten, age 62 of Phil Campbell, Alabama, passed away Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2022, at Helen Keller Hospital.
She was born on Jan. 14, 1960, in Haleyville, Alabama. Reanee was a lover of her family and her friends, and her grandbabies were her life. She was a grandmother, mother, sister, aunt, and someone that anyone that met her loved and cherished. Reanee always followed the wishes of her mom and dad to love her family, lead, guide, protect, and respect each other. She also loved her animals (horses, cows, and dogs) so much that after high school she went into vet tech school. She later went into a family business where she became “The Boss” where she directed not only the employees, but the brothers and sisters that she loved more than the business she was in.
A visitation will be held on Friday, Dec. 30, 2022, from 5-9 p.m. at Maxwell Chapel Church in Haleyville, where the service will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 31, 2022. Burial will follow in adjoining Cemetery. Brother Tom Gilbert will officiate.
