Taylor Reyes passed away in late May near Tyler, TX. His family and friends will remember him for brightening the lives of everyone he met with optimism, generosity, and authenticity. He embodied the theory of “Live every moment, Laugh every day, Love beyond words”
Taylor is survived by his wife, Kirsten and his sons, Jesse and Maddox. His parents, Mike and Kathy. His siblings, Kelli, Tyler, Samantha and Rebecca. Finally, his Grandparents, Rodney and Belva Sterkel and Grandma Christine Knight. Born in Kansas to his parents Mike and Kathy, Taylor would spend the majority of his life in Lakewood, CO. His time there was filled with exploring his fondness of the outdoors with friends and family, especially fishing.
Eventually Taylor found his soulmate Kirsten, and they made their home in Tyler, TX. While living in Texas, he and his family thrived, and he enjoyed working at Craig’s Dirt Service as a Project Coordinator. When not picking tomatoes out of his epic garden, Taylor would be at the local ponds teaching and passing on his love of fishing to his sons, Jesse and Maddox, who are the pride of his life.
Taylor burned bright during his life and will be forever missed but not forgotten, along with his antics at the Thanksgiving table and his sick freestyles. He was a great father and protector of his family until the very end. He would tell Kirsten, “If you have the ability to help people you should because your fortunate enough to be ABLE to help."
