Christy J. (Cross) Reed, 47, of Middletown, PA, was greeted in Heaven on Thursday, February 18, 2016, by her beloved Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who was also raising her first son, Justin Michael Reed, until she arrived.
Anyone who knows Christy knows that her first order of business was to celebrate in dance with her betrothed, Jesus, and her family, to include Justin, her parents, the late Rev. George D. and Janice (Scoughton) Cross, and the extensive, new spiritual family she is happily forming relationships with already.
Born as the 3rd child to the Cross’s on November 21, 1968 in Harrisburg, Christy was the free spirit of the family, the one that was not afraid to try new things. She loved everyone she ever met, which propelled her easily into various volunteer efforts and missions projects; she was especially thrilled to join family members on a missions trip to Haiti.
She was very involved as a member of Glad Tidings Assembly of God church, where she taught Sunday School and offered her talents wherever needed. Although a prolific note taker of sermons, Christy’s favorite part of church services was praise and worship, where she freely enjoyed incorporating dance and sign language in communion with her Savior.
Christy’s love of people was also a blessing in her career as a photographer for Olan-Mills studios for many years, which she only stopped to pursue a teaching degree at Penn State University where she was enrolled prior to taking ill, having previously earned her A.A at HACC.
Christy will be tremendously missed by her loving son, Jordan E. Reed, who attends Middletown Area High School; three siblings, Scott Cross and his wife Kathy of La Crosse, WI, Cathi Cross and her husband Joe Boswell of Rosenberg, TX, and Jonathan Cross and his wife Natalie of Jacksonville, FL, and many nieces, nephews and other family members who adored her.
A tribute to Christy's life will be held on Saturday, February 27, 2016 at 11:00 AM at Glad Tidings Assembly of God, 190 Fulling Mill Rd., Middletown PA 17057 with the Rev. John Lanza, her pastor, officiating.
Family will host visitation prior to services at 10:00 AM, and the church welcomes attendees to join them for lunch after sevices. Inurnment will be at the convenience of the family.
The family has entrusted the care of the Matinchek & Daughter Funeral Home and Cremation Services Inc., Middletown to handle the funeral arrangements.
