Reanna Marie Lambert, 37, of Wolf Point, Montana went home to be with Jesus and her dearest daughter, Amanda Rose, on November 30, 2013 at the Trinity Hospital in Wolf Point, Montana.
Reanna was born February, 27, 1976 in Wolf Point, Montana to Stephen and Connie Lambert. She was raised in Wolf Point, and graduated from Wolf Point High School in 1994. Growing up she was very active in sports, playing basketball, volleyball, softball, and on the swim team. Reanna loved going to swim meets and softball games with her sister. They got up at 6:00 every morning for some type of practice and came home very hungry late in the afternoons. Reanna also loved to play basketball with her brother; they would spend countless hours playing basketball at Borge Park, often showing up late for dinner. Listerud Street was her playground, from playing ditch at night to ice skating in the winter time with all the neighborhood kids. Many great life-long friendships were made by her (too many to name but you know who you are). She was a very kind person and rarely said no to a challenge. She was very competitive and anyone that knew her could attest to that. She also loved to hunt and fish throughout her life, especially with her dad, brother, and grandpa. Reanna also loved music of all types; she was musical and was member of the WPHS pep band. She loved spending time playing cards with her friends and family especially during the holidays. Some of her favorite card games were whist, hearts, gin rummy, and solitaire. She had a special bond with all of her cousins, especially Sam.
She married Chad Heser in Wolf Point, Montana in 1998. From this union came Andrew Michael, Kevin David, Logan James, and Amanda Rose. Early in their marriage, Chad and Reanna moved to Billings, Montana, but returned home to Wolf Point, Montana in 2003.They later divorced. Her boys got their love of sports from her, especially basketball. She loved coaching her boys in basketball and soccer.
She was also a very hard worker, among her careers she worked as 911 Dispatcher for Roosevelt County, a C.N.A. for Prioricare Staffing Solutions, Montana Health Network, and other businesses in Montana and North Dakota. After meeting Kendall Johnson, she loved working beside him at Nemont Weed Busters and on his farm/ranch. Reanna was always willing to help out where ever she was needed, and she kept the team moral up during the long spraying season. She loved going to the ranch and riding Kendall’s 4-wheeler, and she was also working on her fear of flying with Kendall’s patient nature.
Reanna was the strongest and kindest person wrapped into one little firecracker package. She had wit, humor, compassion, love, and loyalty through the good and tough times in her life. Reanna loved to play Words with Friends and dancing to country music. Her favorite thing to say to anyone was “Oh, come on now!”
Reanna is preceded in death by Amanda Rose Heser (daughter), Lorayne Lillian Berger (grandmother), Sarah Davis (great grandmother), Joseph & Mazel Petrick (great grandparents).
Survived by Andrew, Kevin, & Logan Heser, Kendall Johnson (significant other), Connie Lambert & David Booke, Stephen & Cecilia Lambert and Abby Julio (stepsister), Chad & Kris (sister),Spencer, Colton, & Nicole Rush (Scobey, MT), Ryan Lambert (brother), Dr. Jack & Mardelle (Mitzi) Lambert, Clifford & Cheryl Berger and family (Poplar, MT), Joseph Berger (Billings, MT), Pierre Berger and family, Carol Berger and family, William & Lori Berger and family, Nick & Barb Beery and family (Seeley Lake, MT), David & Maureen Piersak and family (Fort Peck, MT), A.

Remembering all the wonderful times – lots of tears of love. Wish the memorial service could be online for all us working far away.

To all of Reanna’s family,
I was so saddened by this accident. Reanna ALWAYS had a smile on her face and a hug to give me from the time we competed early on in swim team until the last time I saw her at Fort Peck a few summers ago. She will be greatly missed by many including myself. May her family have peace and cherish her memories. May Reanna be reunited with her daughter that she missed so much! Thoughts and prayers to all.

Connie,
Connie I am so sorry to hear about Reanna. Please except my sincerest sympathies. If there is anything I can do, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I remember the day she was born and how beautiful she was when I held her for the first time. Please know that I am thinking about you.

Brian & JoAnn Nelson says
We are both thinking of your family in our thoughts and prayers. I was blessed to have known Reanna for a very long time. She was a good friend and I grew to know her very well working with her at the 911 center. I was on duty the day she left this world. Wish I could have maybe done more to help but I know she is in God’s arms now and he takes care of all of us better than any of us could ever do! I know at this time it’s hard to hear that time will heal but she is with Amanda now and all her family that has gone on before her. Our thots and prayers. Brian & JoAnn Nelson
Shai-lee Weeks and Lionel Weeks says
I would just like to say that Reanna was one of my good step-mother’s. I was so shocked to hear that she has passed. I knew Reanna through my father Lionel Weeks. I loved how ambitious she was about sports, dancing, and traveling. I loved when we all got together in our green suburban and traveled to Billings for vacation. She always had something humorous or entertaining to say, I am so sorry for your loss Connie. My father also would like to share a story about when they first met. He say’s that she was a loving and kind person who will always be in his heart. I know how much they adored each other when they went fishing or hunting. He misses her dearly. They first met at Lucky Lil’s out of no where , where my father felt like something was telling him to talk to her. I thought it was meant to be. My father also loved all of Reanna’s kids and respected each and every one. They all grew on my father and me. Especially when we would all go out and play basketball together, I want to thank her for coaching/teaching me about basketball. She will be dearly missed. You are in our prayrers.
Brandon, Alysia & Joseph Williamson says
The last time we saw Reanna, she had just gotten Logan’s report card & was heading down the hallway to see his teachers. We are going to miss seeing her at Logan’s bball games. Always right in front. Don’t know who the louder fan was, me or her! May God bless & comfort her family. She will always be with you.
Sharon M Nickels-Slayter says
Connie and David,
My sincere condolences for your loss. I am thinking about you and your family and praying for God’s soothing words to touch your souls. May His hands hold you close and comfort you in your darkest times. Hold each other tightly. May the love that surrounds you today nourish your spirit and hold you through the weeks and months ahead. God bless you and your family.
Love from your friend in Spanaway, WA
Barb & Dick Owens says
We were sad to hear of Reanna’s tragic death. We lost touch with here and were reacquainted in Beulah. It was good to see her. Then we all went our separate ways but felt a connection with her through swimming. We offer our condolences during your time of grief.
Pam and Dennis Benson says
There really are no words that can cut through the pain of losing a loved one through such a tragedy. Our hearts and prayers are with all of you. The next few months will be the hardest as you reflect on all of the wonderful memories you have with Reanna. You can love someone so much, but you can never love them as much as you miss them when they are gone. Reanna was a person who touched the lives of everyone who met her. Her love for her family and life will always be remembered. Trust God to help you and comfort you as you journey through these difficult days. May God Bless all of you!
Dee Von says
My condolences to the Family and Friends of Reanna, after reading all the expressions about Reanna I can tell she was loved very much and will be missed dearly. May you find comfort in the scriptures. There is going to be a resurrection of both the righeous and the unrighteous.” Acts 24: 15. “And the last enemy, death, wil be brought to nothing.” 1 Corinthians 15: 26 You are in my prayers.
