BEN REYNOLDS Obituary
Ben (Benjie) Reynolds, II
7/5/73 - 2/13/24
On February 13, 2024, Ben Gerald Reynolds II (Benjie), age 50, left this earth for a better place.
Benjie was born on July 5, 1973, in McKinney, Texas, to Ben and Golda Reynolds. He attended McKinney High School and was the owner/operator of B&A Spraying.
He is survived by his wife, Angie Reynolds; son, Jacob Reynolds; mother, Golda Mayfield and stepfather, Dave Mayfield; siblings Johnny Reynolds, Gerrie Lovejoy, Scott Reynolds, Kelly Rigsby, Nichelle Sims, Amy Cummings, and Shanna Coffey.
He is preceded in death by his father Ben Reynolds; grandparents, Ronald and Pat Rigsby; John and DeAlva Reynolds; Nora Lee Ribich, and sister, Sondra Autry.
A true outdoorsman, Benjie was always looking forward to his next adventure. If he wasn't tinkering in his shop, you can bet he was out hunting or fishing with Angie or any of the countless people lucky enough to call him friend or family.
He was the guy we called when the chips were down or when we needed a laugh. If he couldn't fix it, it wasn't fixable. He would do whatever it took to make you smile.
Although he left this world too soon, Benjie made an impact on everyone he met. He will be greatly missed and remembered fondly. May his friends and family find strength in the memories they shared.
Please join the family at a come-and-go memorial service honoring Benjie's life on March 9, 2024, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at The Melissa Barn at HD Ranch, 1235 CR 278, Melissa, Texas

My memories of Benjie...that typical, pesky little brother,
of my two closest friends (Nichelle and Amy); doing pesky little brother things when I was growing up in New Hope. We were always doing fun stuff- Friday Night Videos, campfires, snowball fights, mud wrestling, rock pits- 4 wheeling and motorcycling, toilet papering trees, AND kick the can!!
Precious, fond memories I have that run deep with Benji- always around with all of us New Hope kids.
I ALWAYS felt like part of the family at their house. I am an only child, so it was like a second home, a second family spending time at their house. DP and sweet tea were staples.
Fast forward to us all growing up- he is this amazing young man- a solid guy´s guy that EVERYONE loved. Such a gentleman.
I will miss his piercing eyes, his sweet smile, his contagious laugh. My heart is broken.
But those memories...he is at the heart of ALL of them.

When he got to meet our daughter Meradith Marie. It ment the world to me for him to get to meet her and see her. She just cut up at him and smiled. As he told stories about his son and to share those memories and that moment with him meant the world.
I will also remember going over there and playing cornhole, darts and just having a good time. Him laughing and such a warm welcome as soon as you walk up to him. Hug you even though he was dirty from all the tinkering and work he was doing before we got there. He would tell you stories after stories. No matter what day you were having he would also make it better with talks, jokes until 4 am in the morning! Get there at 6pm and not leave until the next morning. He knew to keep the conversation going and going.
We love you and miss you benjie. Forever in our hearts and mind. That smile, that laugh and those
Memories overall.

Mom and dad bringing him home from the hospital and me thinking "oh good grief! Couldn´t we just get a puppy instead??" (Those thoughts being that of a 9 year old oldest brother!)
