William "Bill" Reynolds Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 5, 2023.
William "Bill" D. Reynolds, 78.

January 13th, 1945 - December 1st, 2023.

William passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side on December 1st, 2023.

William was born in 1945, in New Haven, Connecticut, to Mary L. Reynolds and William "Donald" D. Reynolds Sr. He was raised in North Haven, Connecticut and resided there until his death. He was a very hardworking individual and a true family man. He enjoyed spending time with his wife, Patricia and raising his two daughters, Kaitlyn and Courtney. He always spoke about how much he loved "his girls". He was very happy and had such joy becoming a grandfather this year. William always enjoyed the little things and made small things seem big. He was an animal lover, his home was never without either a cat or dog. He was kind, loyal and brave and a great husband and father to his girls. He is survived by his wife, Patricia Reynolds, his daughters Kaitlyn Reynolds and Courtney Riggs (Reynolds), his son in law, Jason Riggs and his granddaughter, Grier Riggs. He will be welcomed in heaven, by his predeceased mother and father, William "Donald" D. Reynolds Sr. and Mary L. Reynolds and his sister, Donna Lee Truckenbrodt and his cousin, Lester J Reynolds, who was more like a brother to him. We take comfort knowing he will be with so many of those he loved. All who knew and loved William are invited to a mass that will be at St. Therese Church, 555 Middletown Ave, North Haven, CT 06473 on Thursday, December 7th, 2023, at noon. In lieu of flowers, we ask for donations to be made in his honor to Animal Haven Inc or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
