Jimmy to us was the perfect gentleman,always welcomed you with a big smile and open arms not only was he a wonderful and loving Brother-in-law but a true friend and confidant, one who would give his shirt off his back to help you. His good nature and loving ways will always remain in our hearts and never be forgotten.
Good bye my Amigo, you will be missed.

Toni,
We are so sorry to hear of Jim's passing! My daughter called to tell us since we are down in Florida.
We were just talking about him the other day when we were home for a couple of days and we rode by the house in Marshfield.
He was a great guy! We had a lot of laughs during the good ol' years at Gillette!
Our condolences to you and Lyndsay!

Toni and Lindsay,

Please accept our deepest sympathy. The one thing that Jimmy wanted was to go to Bermuda, and you both made that possible for him. It was very special.

Love,

Diane and Nick

Jim was a wonderful and very polite man. I only wish we knew he had served in the marines. We would have been able to thank him personally. He worked with my husband with the produce business before he took it over. Rest in Peace Jim.

Lyndsay:

I didn't know your father, but if he is anything at all like his wonderful daughter (and it sounds like he was), then he must have been a remarkable man. My condolences to you, your husband, and all of your family during this sad time.

I'll be keeping you close in my thoughts,
JaneAnn Fisher

Jim, we'll miss you. Haven't seen you since Andy's 60th, but we love you. Had good times over the years, you and that silly grin on your face. We tried to tell you, you can't grow fur over that lip, but you insisted.

God speed, we'll see you up there. We know you'll be waiting for us. Have a couple of beers ready.

Love, Nancy and Andy.

Our sincere condolences to the entire Reynolds family.

I worked with Jimmy at Gillette back in the 60s and 70s.

He was a nice guy and had a heart of gold and a quick little quip to go with each smile he had for you.

The stories, Jimmy knew how to tell a story. It was like you were part of the expeirence.I am so sorry for your loss. Jimmy will truely be missed. Just know Jimmy will be keeping an eye out and thinking have one for me and tell a joke !!!!
God bless,
