Obituary of Bobby Reid

Robert Joe “Bobby” Reid (58) resident of Emida, ID passed away at The Schneidmiller Hospice House on February 28, 2019.  He was born to Joe and Patricia (Johnson) Reid on February 1, 1961 in Walla Walla, WA.  Bobby attended school in Emida, Fernwood, and St. Maries.  In 1985 he married Shelley Croson; they later divorced. They had one daughter, Kari Ann Reid.   Bobby supported himself by working in the woods.  He ran a skidder and was a sawyer for Gil Fritsche.  He then went to work for Kelly Ragan, and in the late 1980’s he drove log truck for Jack Buell and Lowry Trucking.  He ended up leaving the industry because of some severe medical issues.  Bobby was an outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting, fishing, and 4-wheeling. He was always ready to give out a hug to anyone that needed one.
