Reed Robert Boden

Reed R. Boden passed away in his home surrounded by family on February 10, 2024. He was born on July 11,1957 in Lorain, Ohio and lived in Amherst, Ohio with his loving wife Kris. Reed was a beloved and devoted husband, father, and grandpa. Reed’s legacy will be one of enduring love and commitment. Despite his declining health due to a courageous battle with cancer, Reed never missed an opportunity to be there for his family during major milestones or through the times of struggle when they needed his loving support the most. Throughout his life, he was always there to celebrate achievements, lend a helping hand, or offer advice. His six grandchildren held a special place in his heart. He ensured they knew he was their biggest supporter and the pride and joy of his life. Reed found joy in the small details that life had to offer. The simple pleasures of watching his grandchildren’s sporting events, attending school programs, family gatherings, and walking the dogs filled him with many joyous moments that he cherished throughout the years. Reed attended Lorain schools throughout his childhood before attending Akron University where he majored in civil engineering. Upon graduation, Reed embarked on a successful career culminating in employment at Osborn Engineering in Cleveland, Ohio where he worked as a Senior Civil Engineer. Reed's memory will be cherished by his wife, Kristine (nee Glowacki), and their children; Peter, Dan, Lindsey, and Charlotte. He will be deeply missed by his six grandchildren, Aidan, Jacob, Chloe, Quinn, Evangeline, and Ophelia. Also surviving Reed are his siblings Mikey, Donald, Kim, and Brian along with many nieces, nephews, and in-laws. Reed was preceded in death by his mother and father, Phyllis and Donald Boden.
