Denver Lee Reagan, Jr., 45, of Blue Mound, Kan., died Wednesday, June 21, 2023 from a vehicle accident.

Denver was born May 29, 1978, in Iola, Kan., to Denver Lee, Sr. and Lori Jean (Marker) Reagan. Denver loved being outdoors; especially the time he spent logging with his father and brother. Some of Denver’s favorite outdoor activities included mushroom hunting, and fishing. Denver loved animals and was always rescuing one species or another, but especially loved his rescue cats. His greatest joy was hanging out with his best buddy, his nephew, Henry. Denver never met a stranger. He had a big heart and was always helping others. We will miss his infectious laugh, smile and sense of humor. Denver was loved very much and will be greatly missed.
