Reynald Boily Obituary

Visit the Legacy Remembers website to view the full obituary.
Husband. Partner. Brother. Uncle. Son-in-law, Brother-in-law. Cousin. Friend. Advocate. World traveler. These are all words that describe Reynalds, but to those who knew him, he was so much more. He was larger than life, dynamic, intelligent, caring and generous. He was unforgettable, even to those who only met him once. A true one-of-a-kind person, he lived his life exactly the way he wanted, and always cherished love, adventure, knowledge and family. We all loved him deeply, and his absence is bound to leave a hole in our hearts. Reynalds was the type of person who would want us to take this moment and remember all of the fun memories, to honor his spirit, his bravery, his fun-loving nature, and his desire to make this world a better, more tolerant place. We can show him that we were paying attention, and strive to be everything he embodied….love, acceptance, forgiveness, laughter, and a generosity that knew no bounds. We love you, Reynalds, and we will do our best to make you proud. Click on the multimedia tab to view Reynald's video tribute.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Reynald. I worked for Rey and Yves back in the 70's at Allen Park Billiards. He was a large part of my teen years and was always so very good to me. My deepest condolences to his family, may he rest in peace.

Deepest Sympathy to his friends, family and Dennis. Reynald "Ren" was our neighbor. He was a very nice person. He always had time for a conversation. May our Dear Lord Bless him always. I just spoke with him for and hour some few weeks ago. Ren even mowed an elderly neighbors lawn to help out. Very nice person and will be hugely missed. Thank you Ren once again for snowplowing all of our walkways.

I still remember our first volunteer confirmation call over 5 years ago when I took over the Welcome Center and when Ren was volunteering for us. What a great guy and he worked so many events throughout the week. Ren, you will be missed and thank you for all the good you have done.
