Chris Reynolds Obituary
1954-2025
Salt Lake City, UT-Verle Christopher Reynolds, lovingly known by most as Chris, passed away on October 4, 2025. He was born on January 8, 1954, and lived a life marked by humor, service, and friendship.
Chris proudly served his country in both the United States Army (1977) and the United States Air Force (1980). His dedication and commitment reflected his strong sense of duty and loyalty.
Chris had a deep love for animals and a quick wit that could bring laughter to any room. Those who knew him best will remember his sharp sense of humor, his playful teasing, and his ability to make people laugh.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Verle Reynolds and Claudia Marquez, and his brother, Timothy Reynolds. He is survived by his sister, Kerri Jo Pietramala (Jim), and his brother, Kirk Reynolds.
A heartfelt thank-you goes to his dear friends Jackie Johnson and Mary Jo Korb, whose care, kindness, and companionship meant so much to Chris, especially in the last few years of his life.
Chris will be remembered with love and laughter by all who were fortunate enough to know him.
