Reily was working as an elementary
school librarian in Lewisville Indepen-
dent School District from 2007 until
she retired in 2013. She’d come home
from work and settle in front of her
computer, where she spent hours
studying TWU doctoral material
through online classes. After retiring,
Reily said she devoted herself to her
studies full time, in classes and online.
“That’s when I started doing a lot of
research and writing,” she said. “I did a
lot of writing. Writing, writing and re-
writing.”
Reily has spent her adult life in the
classroom — mostly as a teacher. She

It took Betty C. Reily a decade to get
her doctoral degree from Texas Wom-
an’s University.
But the 72-year-old Highland Village
resident said it was 10 years well spent.
“I started in the fall of 2007,” Reily
recalled. “I was working, and I took a
couple of summers off after a parent
died.”

The number of homeless children
and chronically homeless people in
Denton County rose from 2016 during
this year’s Point-in-Time count. The to-
tal number of homeless people, howev-
er, dropped slightly from 230 to 228.
Of the 228 homeless people in the
county during the count, 34 were chil-
dren and 39 were chronically homeless,
meaning they continuously or sporad-
ically were homeless for a long period of
time. Last year, count results revealed
29 homeless children and 34 people
who were chronically homeless.
The Point-in-Time count is required
by federal law and aims to identify the
number of homeless people in the
county eveiy year. On Jan. 26, volun-
teers went to shelters, libraries, wooded
encampments and anywhere homeless
people may congregate. They tallied the
homeless to measure trends and pin-
point areas that may need more out-
reach services.
The results were revealed to the
public Friday in an exhibit-style setting
at UNT on the Square. Attendees pe-
rused the data written on pieces of card-
board, which were displayed through-
out the gallery
Although PIT survey questions have
varied slightly from year to year, Dani
Shaw, the city’s human services coordi-
nator, said this year’s survey questions
will serve as a template for future
counts. With more consistency, trends
will be more identifiable, she said.
“Really, were getting richer data and
understanding how to use data better
than we ever have,” Shaw said.
The count results are not a long-
term indicator of homelessness in the
county, but rather a snapshot into
homelessness on a given day
More volunteers participated in this
year’s count than last year. Accompa-
nied by Denton police officers, they also
accessed more locations than previous

brother. In the fall, the leaves will turn orange — Gabe’s favorite color.

Family’s struggles ended

her Denton home, she remembers the boy who
used to live there.
“Most people think it’s the gloomy days that
are sad,” Heidi said. “But the prettier the day, the
harder it is. My bright, curious, engaging child
should be here.”
The vocal teacher lost her oldest son, Gabe,
to suicide in September 2015. He was 25 years
old and had just started taking college courses
again at the University of North Texas.
As Mother’s Day passes this year, Heidi, her
husband, Joe, and their 21-year-old son, Max,
move together through life, just as they always
have. There’s just a space that will always re-
main.
