A post made yesterday evening on the Reynolds Subaru (of Lyme) Facebook page says: “It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Gary H. Reynolds.”
According to the obituary published by the Fulton Theroux Funeral Service, “Gary lived an incredibly full life in his short 69 years, dedicating the majority of his time and talent to the community of Lyme and his family.” At the time of his death, Mr. Reynolds’ accomplishments included being the president and owner of Reynolds Garage and Marine, Inc. and chairman of the Lyme Board of Finance, having given 37 years of service.
Mr. Reynolds is survived by his wife of 45 years, Marilynn C. Reynolds, three children, Leland Thomas Reynolds and wife Shaleigh Reynolds, twins, G. Hayden Reynolds and wife Emily Reynolds, and Kathryn R. Wayland and husband Mark Wayland and a sister, Carleen Gerber, all of whom reside in Lyme. He is the son of the late Laura and Leland Reynolds of Lyme.
A funeral service for Mr. Reynolds will be held on Monday, July 15, at 11 a.m. in the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme. Calling hours will be held on Sunday, July 14, from 3 until 6 p.m. in Fulton-Theroux Funeral Home, 13 Beckwith Ln., Old Lyme, CT 06371.
A great landmark is gone. We send the entire family of Mr. Reynolds our sincerest condolences.
Gary was always a breathe of fresh air and common sense in the room. He was a true gentleman in the finest sense of the word.
A very high level professional, he was also always objective and able to find the right solution to any complex problem. A very likeable and liked man.
