Saddened to learn of Mr. Reid’s passing on the the eternal side. Remembering our time spent together for over 40 years. And especially cherish the many rounds of golf with Robert Reid II, my best friend, and Robert Reid III, my Godson. After all he did introduce the game to me with many lessons.
I know St Peter opened the pearly gates for his entrance. My prayer for him and the family.

It breaks my heart to hear the news of Bob’s passing.
Good people like Bob should play rounds of golf until 100 years old! I was a volunteer counselor at a Youth Program with Bob.
I often came by on his volunteer night to watch him and
His wife and two little children of his own, having so much fun with the youth in the Program. Always positive and easy going, it was uplifting always to be in his presence. Humorous,
Positive, and just one helleva nice guy. Always be missed, but always remembered!
