Reyes was a member of Los Milagros de Christo for over 20 years and active member of the Dolores Catholic Church; He enjoyed playing the bass for the gruop worship band. He enjoyed sharing the Word of God with everyone.  He was a spiritual man and loved his family with grace.

Reyes worked in AISD and BISD as a custodian, where became everyone's grandpa. Reyes was loved and respected by all the children no matter what school he served.  He retired from Cedar Creek Elementary in 2012 in Cedar Creek Texas.  Mr Reyes watched over all the children in the school and was familiar with all the parents.  He enjoyed his job and knew everyone's name.

He was a provider and gave you his shirt without hesitation. He encouraged others to stay strong with God.  He loved Mom so much.  He cared for her during her fragile years. He loved on her and kept her safe.  

God's plan is perfect and His will always on point. We have no doubt that Dad and Mom rest together because they are soul mates.  God created them for each other and rest in the Lord together.  They would want you to live your best life, serve others, love all people and most importantly put Jesus first.
