Not sure what to say?

I was very sorry to hear about John's death. During my 24 years as head football coach at Moravian College he was always very supportive of not just my team but all of the teams in the athletic department. He was always willing to meet with visiting recruits whenever I asked. He was a well-respected professor and a valued member of the Moravian College community. John Reynolds was a class act and he will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Reynolds family.

Bill,

Just a quick note to offer our sympathies to you and your entire family.

I would like to send my deepest sympathies to the Reynolds Family in the loss of a truly great man. I will miss the good conversations and stories we shared and laughed at in the Barber Shop over the years.

Sincerely,

My sincere condolences to the Reynolds family on John's passing. John was a good colleague of mine for over 30 years. He always impressed me as someone who loved being a professor, loved his academic discipline and loved Moravian College and the community of Bethlehem. He served them all very well. He will be missed at Moravian.

Rachel & family,

So very sorry for your loss. John was a strong, gentle man who left us with some of the best little league memories. Beautiful souls like Johns' are never forgotten.

My sincere condolences to Willie and the entire Reynolds family on the passing of John. John was a great example to all. John had a keen insight and was one of our great thinkers. He cared deeply about his community and shared his political insights on a regular basis. John has gone way too soon and he will be sorely missed. May He Rest in Peace.

My deepest condolences to all that knew and loved John.
Although I only know some of the family through Rachel's church, it is important to me to express my regrets to those that personally knew John.

The last days of August 2008 was when I first met Dr. Reynolds in my first semester at Moravian. Little did I know that he would later be the professor I'd have the most courses with while at Moravian, and, also, that by junior year be my academic advisor.
Even after I graduated in 2011, when I asked him for help on certain issues over the years, he would always lend what help that was needed. Even as recent as 2018, when I was going up for BTZ with the Air Force, Dr. Reynolds lent his...
