I’m truly sorry for your loss. May God grant each of you comfort, strength, and peace.

WySandra and Nate Richards 

Essentially growing up at Cathy's studio with Reed as a classmate and co-worker, I always looked up to his talent, work ethic, and ability to bring limitless energy to every scene he performed. He was an amazing partner in scenes, and never failed to impress those who got to watch. As we got older, and I was able to spend more time with him outside of the studio, I not only loved who he was as an actor but also as a person. I'll never forget nights shared on the balcony of Alex Gay's house, where time would freeze and we'd get lost in talks about life, acting and taking turns freestyling over beats. I don't think a recording of our freestyles would ever make it as a chart topping single, but you would never know that from the fun that we had. Every joke buried in a lyric brought a smile to our face. And further down the line, when we were both in LA, I was fortunate to grow even closer to Reed. He was a great friend, full of laughter and positive energy; if there was ever a gray cloud in his skies, you would never know it. Reed was a beautiful soul, deserving of all the great things this life has to offer, and he will be dearly missed. 

Love,
