Tommy B Reed Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

On October 11, 2021, Heaven welcomed Tommy Bill Reed, a loving, caring and kindhearted father, brother, and friend. Born July 14, 1957, in Monahans, Texas to Bill and Lavenia Reed, who preceded him in death, followed by his wife Tracy. After BVHS graduation, he obtained certification for Oil Refinery System Operations/Safety, and was employed with Valero Energy, Inc. in Corpus Christi, Texas and in Florida until retirement. He married his high school sweetheart, Tracy Stephens. Their son, Thomas Vince was their Pride & Joy. After moving his family to Florida, together they enjoyed Christian fellowship and volunteer work as members of Shiloh Baptist Church. The simplest pleasures in life brought great joy to him, he was an avid outdoorsman; including beaches, bike/hiking trails, hunting, fishing and camping. During his retirement years he enjoyed scenic photography, genealogy and was always a big sports fan. His pleasant personality was contagious to everyone he met. We will all miss his great storytelling, jokes, pranks, and infectious laugh. Tommy left this world suddenly at age 64 and walked through Heaven's gate with joyful laughter and singing: "It is well, it is well with my soul". He often said, "see you soon"! It's comforting to know he's in a better place and whole again, and that we will All be reunited one day in Heaven. He will be dearly missed by his son, Thomas Vince Reed of Austin, Texas; brother, Warren Lee Reed; sisters, Patricia Nell Reed, and Becky Ann Mosher (husband, David), many cousins, nieces and nephews. A graveside memorial will be held for family at Paint Creek Cemetery, Paint Creek, Texas. Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Heritage Funeral Home of Brady.
