John Michael Reise
July 9, 1953 – October 12, 2025 (Age 72)
John Michael Reise was born in Tucson, Arizona but spent much of his childhood and youth in Southern California. In High School, John won an award from the Future Farmers of America and continued on to Paloma College to study agricultural management. John first got involved with the construction business with his older brother and remained in this line of work until his retirement. As a construction manager, John built communities in California, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Washington and South Carolina. John was a man of deep faith who devoted his life to serving God with humility and unwavering commitment. Outside of work, John was an avid golfer and woodcrafter. John will be remembered for his poetry that inspired many. Above all, John deeply loved his animals and is dearly missed by his three dogs and cat.
John is survived by his wife, Irina Reise; his daughter, Klavdia Zemlianova; his younger sister, Joy Clerique as well as many other family members and friends who loved him.
A Celebration of Life Memorial service will be held at Legacy Church in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on Nov. 8, 2025 at 12:00 PM.
