Colin Reuter Obituary

Colin M. Reuter, 39, of Lawrence, passed on May 5th, 2017. He was born December 5th, 1977 in Huntington, New York. He is survived by his parents, Eileen Reuter of Pennsylvania and Robert Reuter of Delaware, two sisters, Genevieve (Rich) Solomon of New Jersey and Emily Reuter of Michigan, his niece Eve and nephew Calvin, as well as many friends in Kansas and on the East Coast.

Colin received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Religious Studies from The University of Kansas, his Master of Liberal Arts Degree from Baker University, and was in his second year in the Anthropology Department Ph.D. program at The University of Kansas, where he also worked as a graduate teaching assistant.

Colin brought humor, music, intellectual curiosity and love to all who were lucky enough to have him touch their lives, and while he will be deeply missed, he will live on within the hearts of all who loved him so dearly.

A celebration of Colin's life will be held in early June in New Jersey. Memorial donations may be made to the Lawrence Humane Society.
