Obituary of Cotheia Marie Reynolds

"Some people only walk this earth for a short time. Their departure reminds us that angels are watching over us." On June 29th, 2023, Cotheia (Tiny) Reynolds rejoined her heavenly family and gained her wings.

Cotheia graduated from Spingarn High School in 1972. Following graduation, she began her professional career with Sperry Univac/Unisys Corporation and ended her time there after 28 years of service in 2008. She concluded her working career with CBRE in April of 2023 after 13 years of service.

She was predeceased by her parents and survived by her brother, Coy Reynolds III, her son, Alondo Donnell Reynolds, her daughter, Dawnn Kathleen Burroughs-Serpas, her five grandchildren: Marian Dicks, Alondo Reynolds Jr, Neveah Reynolds, Kaiden Reynolds, and Lena Serpas. She is also survived by two Step Grandchildren: Diamond Sullivan, and Ashley Tyler.

Cotheia was a compassionate, undeniably fun, and uplifting spirit. She always provided support and love for her family, and nothing made her happier than seeing her children and grandchildren succeed. She also loved her furry friends deeply, her two cats Bob, and Olivia.
