Paul Holt Reid returned to his heavenly home November 24, 2016, Thanksgiving evening, with his loving family gathered around him. Paul was born on May 20, 1934 in Ogden, Utah the 4th son of George Samuel and LaVon Holt Reid. He is survived by his beloved wife, Colleen Bennett and their five children, Chad (Loralee), Robyn Dickson (Nathan), Mark (Joy), Bruce (Holly), and Blake (Cathleen); eighteen grandchildren and thirty-four great grandchildren. He is also survived by his two brothers, George Stephen (Steve) and Stanford (Stan). He was preceded in death by his parents; two older brothers, Donald (Don) and Charles Richard (Dick); grandson, James Dickson and great granddaughter, Shaylee Reid. Paul and Colleen were married on July 15, 1954 in the Logan LDS Temple. They made their home in Sunset, Utah, and have remained there since. Paul graduated from Davis High School and then from the University of Utah with a degree in Accounting. He retired from his work in civil service at Hill Air Force Base supervising procurement of Air Force training systems parts and support services, and then continued his professional career for several years thereafter in a similar capacity at WBK Controls with his business colleague and dear friend, Arjun Bachus. Paul was best known for his great love of God and family and for his tireless and selfless service to community and church, including his service as a Bishop, counselor in the Sunset Stake Presidency, and culminating in his service as an Ordinance Worker, Sealer and Second Counselor in the Presidency of the Ogden LDS Temple. His reverence for temple work was influenced in part by his commitment to researching the lives of his ancestors, whose legacy of faith and service he worked so diligently to carry on. Paul had a great love for all he served, and he was equally loved by those he served. Pauls neighbors, friends and family will miss the frequent summertime visits as he and Colleen would go door to door generously sharing the produce harvested from their garden that they so skillfully tended. The streets of Roy, Sunset and Clinton will miss Pauls attention as he would meticulously gather and dispose of litter along the various routes of his daily walks. His children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren will treasure the special memories from the annual family outings held at the Homestead and Sherwood Hills resorts, Yellowstone and Bear Lake. Funeral services will be held on Thursday, December 1, 2016 at 11:00 am at the Sunset 5th Ward building, 2431 North 250 West. The family will be gathered at the 5th Ward building to greet neighbors and friends on Wednesday evening, November 30, 2016 from 6:00 to 9:00 pm and Thursday morning from 9:30 to 10:45 am.
