The funeral for Reverend Reese Eugene Kyzar will be held at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, June 19th at Riverwood Family with burial in the Rosehill Cemetery. Friends and family are welcome to come from Noon until the time of the service on Wednesday for a time of visitation.
Rev. Kyzar was born in Lincoln County, MS, February 22, 1927, to Felix Henry Kyzar and Mary Hughes Kyzar. He served his country in the United States Navy during the WWII era.
After returning from the war, Rev. Kyzar surrendered into the gospel ministry and served the Lord Jesus over 70 years in diverse places. On June 16, 2024, Rev. Kyzar’s faith, that he preached about and believed in so faithfully, became sight as he entered eternal life with the Savior he loved so. He was 97 years of age.
Psalm 37:23 tells us “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.” Rev. Kyzar was a delight to the Lord and to the many he served over the years. He will be remembered and cherished by those who loved him.
He is preceded in death by his wife, Ollie Grice Kyzar; his parents; brother, Luther Elmo Kyzar; and sister, Ruby Lee Kyzar Allen.
He is survived by the many friends he has made along his journey as well as a host of distant family.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the MS Baptist Foundation, PO Box 530 Jackson, MS 39205.
