Charles Reed Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Higgins Funeral Home - Fayetteville on Mar. 9, 2026.
Charles "Chuck" Everett Reed, age 84, of Fayetteville, Tennessee, passed away on March 8, 2026, at Huntsville Hospital in Huntsville, Alabama. Born on February 24, 1942, in Pioneer, Tennessee, he was the son of the late Roy Chester Reed and Edna Myrtle Coker Reed. Chuck served his country in the United States Air Force before becoming a well-known figure in his community as the owner and operator of Park City Tire. A man of faith and service, he was a dedicated member of Park City Baptist Church and a member of the Fayetteville Lions Club. In his leisure time, Chuck was an avid outdoorsman who found great joy in fishing and golfing.

Chuck is survived by his devoted wife, Myrna Johnson Reed; his son, Scott (Cindy) Reed; and his daughter, Debbie (Michael) Pruitt. He was a proud grandfather to Lindsay Bradford, Kasey Pruitt, Samantha (Stephen) Hull, Ashlee (Brent) Fugate, and Patrick (Carrie) Bradford, and a great-grandfather to Avery Cross, Silas Fugate, Beau Bradford, Riley Jo Bradford, Brynlee Pruitt, and Peyton Hull. He also leaves behind two sisters, Mary Lou Reed Holliman and Jetti (Marshall) Lloyd; and a brother-in-law, Paul Byrge; and a host of nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Sandra Byrge.

Funeral services will be conducted at 11:00 AM on Friday, March 13, 2026, at Higgins Funeral Home with Bro. Jason Caldwell officiating. Burial will follow at Higgins Cedar Hills Memorial Gardens. The family will receive friends for visitation on Thursday, March 12, 2026, from 5:00 PM until 8:00 PM at Higgins Funeral Home.
