Phoebe
Amanda Reeves was born on October 4, 1917 in
Grand Bassa County
to Chapman Reeves and Yeamah "Gee"
Brown. She was predeceased by her
husband, parents and siblings: Chapman Jr.,
Clauda, Johnny, Karkeh,
Eric, Dessey, Eliel, Simeon, Olivia, Maggie,

Phoebe
worked for the United Nations Children's Fund
(UNICEF) at the
Ministry of Agriculture. During that time, she
traveled extensively in
the Scandinavian countries. When she returned
to Liberia, she devoted
her time to empowering women through teaching
them critical life
skills.
Phoebe
was very active in the Seventh Day Adventist
(SDA) Church, in
fact she transformed her cafe and in her own
words "turned stools into
pews" to open the first SDA church in Sanniquellie.
When the
congregation grew, she worked with Dell Harrison
to erect the first
SDA church building and school. She was a tireless
evangelist for
Jesus, always sharing the good news. She was
known for her
hospitality, compassion, and dedication to humanity.
Phoebe
is survived by ten children and their spouses:
Louise & Hilary
Gibson, Chapman Z. Logan, James & Julia
Logan Jr., Phoebe & Franklin
Harmon, Yeamah "YV" & George Brownell,

Logan, hundreds of foster
children, a host of neices, nephews, 27 grandchildren
who will miss
her, and 17.5 great grandchildren.
