đź’™ In Loving Memory of Our Coworker and Friend, Russ Kahle đź’™
It is with incredibly heavy hearts that we share the news that Russ passed away this week after courageously battling cancer for the past year.
Russ was much more than a coworker. He was a respected leader, a friend, and someone whose presence made a difference to everyone who met him. Throughout his fight, but even more so in his last days, he showed incredible strength and courage, and a selflessness beyond imagine. He will be deeply missed by all of us who had the privilege of knowing him.
Our hearts especially go out to Angela and their six children as they face this unimaginable loss. Losing a husband and father is difficult enough without the added financial burden that can come with a long battle with cancer.
If you are able, we would like to ask our friends, customers, coworkers, and community to consider helping support his family during this incredibly difficult time. Any contribution, no matter the amount, can make a difference. If you are unable to contribute financially, sharing this post and keeping his family in your thoughts and prayers is also greatly appreciated.

From all of us at Reach, our deepest condolences go out to Russ’s wife, Angela, their children, family, and loved ones.
Reach will be establishing a $5000 Annual Russ Kahle Memorial Scholarship for students with a GPA of 3.5 or higher, who participated in 2 years of Fine Arts, and have experienced the loss of a parent while attending K-12. Through this scholarship, we hope to carry on Russ’ love for fine arts and education, while helping others grow to become the best versions of themselves after a tragic loss. By helping a student pursue their education and their future, his legacy of teaching, encouraging, and making a difference in the lives of others will continue for generations to come.
