Susannah Noel Overstreet Reaper, 48, of Searcy, passed away December 21, 2016 at Unity Health in Searcy after a battle with pneumonia and respiratory failure. She was born April 6, 1968 at Searcy, Arkansas. She attended Grace Methodist Church where she was baptized and accepted Christ as her savior.

Shortly after, she went to work for Central Arkansas Hospital where she enjoyed her nursing career. She married Frank Reaper in July 1989, and to this union were two sons, Garrett and Joshua.

She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, Earl and Neva Overstreet; maternal grandparents, Edwin and Shirley Jimerson; and sister-in-law, Pamela Overstreet.
