He was born Dec. 11, 1931, at Parma, Idaho, to Clayton E. and Carrie (McNall) Reynolds Sr. Tarz attended school at Potlatch and graduated from Potlatch High School.
He served in the U.S. Army and was discharged as a specialist four in April 1962.
Mr. Reynolds attended the University of Idaho and received a bachelor's degree and later a master's degree in natural science. Mr. Reynolds was employed by the Potlatch School District, where Tarz taught sciences and operated a computer lab at the school. He retired after teaching for 29 years. Mr. Reynolds also drove a school bus for more than 30 years.
Mr. Reynolds farmed and raised cattle in the Princeton area and operated a bulldozer where he built ponds and airstrips locally and for the state of Idaho. Mr. Reynolds was a lead guitarist in family bands for several years. Tarz did some mining for silver, enjoyed flying, boating and was knowledgeable with gems, stones and American Indian artifacts. Tarz enjoyed meeting new people and was very civic-minded. Tarz and his former wife Carol were instrumental in creating the Scenic 6 Park at Potlatch.
Survivors include two great-nephews, Derrick (Mandy), and Kennon (Heather); one niece, Dallas; one great-niece, Lanna (Lee); sister-in-law Delores; one great-great-nephew; and four great-great-nieces.
The family suggests memorials be given to the Potlatch Ambulance Fund, Box 63, Potlatch, ID, or to the Scenic 6 Park, Box 525, Potlatch, ID 83855. Following the service there will be a luncheon at the Palouse River Community Center in Princeton.
Kramer Funeral Home, Palouse, is handling the arrangements.
