The wife of a Marine veteran turned medical volunteer who was killed in Ukraine paid tribute to her “selfless” husband Saturday.
“I can’t imagine our lives without him. I loved him so much, and he loved me so well,” Alex Potter said of her husband Pete Reed in a statement.
“Everything he did was always for the benefit of others,” she said, adding that his “big personality overlaid the fact that he was also incredibly sensitive, loving, and brave in all aspects of the word, someone who carried me and others through incredibly hard times, placing others’ needs above his own.”

..."Reed’s work in Iraq was covered by NBC News’ Chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel, who paid tribute to him on Twitter. “He was dedicated, brave, funny, charismatic and caring,” Engel wrote. “A true humanitarian. A loss for all who knew him and the many he helped.”
Potter said Reed graduated from paramedic school earlier this year.
“We were fierce supporters of each other’s hopes and dreams,” she said."
