Memorial services for 36-year Bridgeport resident William M. Reid were held at 1 p.m. Oct. 25 at Bridgeport Barnes and Terrace with Kathie Reid officiating.

Born in New Jersey on Dec. 31, 1934, Bill died Oct. 21, 2009 at his home. He was 74.

Bill moved his family to Bridgeport in 1973 when he became the CHP Area Commander. Having retired on disability in 1980, remained a devoted public servant, serving in a variety of capacities that included foreman of the Mono County Grand Jury, president of the Regional Council of Rural Counties and representative of the Inyo-Mono Area Agency on Aging. He served three terms as the District 4 Mono County supervisor between 1980 and 1996 and had just returned to that office in 2006.

He will be remembered by family and friends as a fair-minded, hard working man who was devoted to his family and the quality of life afforded by the Eastern Sierra.

Bill is survived by his wife, Lyn; sons, Bill and Jim; daughter, Kathie; daughters-in-law, Cathy and Missy; and granddaughters, Abbey, Alyssa, Emma and Lacey.
