Robert Reid Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Simply Cremation & Funeral Arrangements - Surprise from Mar. 25 to Mar. 26, 2023.
Mr. Robert Albert Benjamin Reid, 61 of Wittmann, Arizona passed away on March 14, 2023, due to a fatal car accident. He was born on December 15, 1961, to Lily Reid, in Buckie, Scotland.

Robert served in the Air Force for 4 years, where he received a commendation for bravery.

His family will cherish the time they got to reconnect these past few years and that they got the chance to express to him just how much he was missed and loved by them. They as a family got to laugh, reminisce, and tell stories of the many crazy and fun family experiences they all had through the years. His family was also a support system when his wife, Lynn passed away.

Robert's life was full of adventures, lots of love, and laughter. He will be remembered as a very independent man that didn't follow the crowd and created a life for himself that made him truly happy.

He is survived by his sisters, Rosalyn Murray, and Charmain Cross; his brothers, Scott Cross, and Moray Cross; and his beloved dog, Bussie.

He was preceded in death by his wife Lynn Reid, and his mother, Lily Reid.

He was truly loved and will be sorely missed by all his friends and family.
