Emery K. Reynolds Obituary

In Loving Memory of
Emery Keith Reynolds
June 24, 1959 – September 10, 2026


Sunrise: June 24, 1959
Sunset: September 10, 2026

Emery Keith Reynolds, age 67, of Dunwoody, Georgia, peacefully entered eternal rest on September 10, 2026. He was born on June 24, 1959, in Jacksonville, Florida. Emery’s life was a beautiful testament to faith, perseverance, love, hard work, and devotion to family.

A Life of Faith and Purpose
Emery was a Christian and a member of Rise Again Ministries Church. His faith was an important part of who he was, and he believed in doing what was right, caring for others, and trusting God throughout every season of life. He carried himself with humility, grace, and quiet strength. Those who knew Emery will remember his kind heart, sincere words, dependable spirit, and the genuine care he showed to those around him. After graduating from high school, Emery dedicated himself to building a meaningful life through hard work and perseverance. For more than 20 years, he worked as an Auto Technician, a career that reflected his patience, mechanical skill, determination, and strong work ethic. He took pride in his work and believed in being honest, reliable, and committed to doing his best. His coworkers, friends, and those he served could count on him, and that same sense of responsibility carried over into his family life.

A Devoted Family Man
Above all, Emery treasured his family. He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Antonia Reynolds, with whom he shared a life filled with love, memories, and devotion. He was a loving father to Nathaniel Criswell, Toneshia Blue, Tauvia Blue, and Jarvarus Blue. He also held a special place in his heart for his beloved daughter, Emily Reynolds, who preceded him in death. Emery leaves to cherish his memory his sister, Linda Cisero, and his stepbrother, Gary Kitt. He was preceded in death by his parents Nathaniel Reynolds, father, mother Mildred Kitt and stepfather Ervin Kitt and his sister, Velda Woodard. He was also a cherished grandfather to his five grandsons and was deeply loved by his nieces, great-nieces, nephews, and great-nephews. Emery understood the importance of family and valued the bonds that connected them. His presence brought comfort, his words offered wisdom, and his love created memories that will remain in the hearts of his family forever.

His Passions and Joys
Emery found joy in the simple things that made life meaningful. He loved music, traveling, watching football, cooking, and spending time with his family. He enjoyed sharing meals, listening to music, watching his favorite football games, and creating memories with the people he loved. These moments may have seemed simple, but they reflected the warmth of Emery’s heart and his appreciation for fellowship and togetherness. The memories created during these times will now become treasured reminders of the life he shared with those around him.

A Legacy of Love
Emery’s earthly journey has come to an end, but his legacy will continue through the lives of those he loved and touched. He leaves behind a family who will forever carry his memory and the lessons he taught through the way he lived.His life was one of faith, perseverance, responsibility, and love. Though his absence will be deeply felt, his family finds comfort in the promise of eternal life and in knowing that his earthly labor is finished. We believe that Emery now rests in the presence of the Lord, where there is no more pain, struggle, or sorrow. His memory will live on in the stories his family tells, the lessons he shared, the meals he prepared, the music he enjoyed, the laughter he brought, and, most importantly, the love he gave so freely. Emery Keith Reynolds will forever be remembered as a devoted husband, loving father, caring brother and stepbrother, cherished grandfather, faithful Christian, and a man of honor whose life reflected the goodness of God.

Forever Loved. Forever Remembered. Forever Missed.
“Well done, good and faithful servant.”
Matthew 25:23
