Michael Lee Reynolds

Michael Lee Reynolds, 81, passed unexpectedly at his home on May 24, 2025.
Michael was born on September 17, 1943 in Muncie, to Wilson Lee and Violet Mary (Jones) Reynolds and graduated from Muncie Central High School in 1961.
Michael was affectionately known as "Sarge" to most who knew him was a man of many hats. He was a police officer, ARMY Veteran, general motors retiree, a husband, father, brother, grandfather, great-grandfather, and father-in-law. Most importantly he was a man of God. It was not until the age of 58 years old when he was finally at the end of his rope and gave it all to the Lord. He proved that it is never to late to make things right with Him. Michael loved god, his family and his country. Michael was an active member of Temple Baptist Church and former member of Jackson Park Church. He volunteered at Wright Patterson AirForce Base as well as Beech Grove Cemetery here in Muncie. Sarge lived life on his terms (If you know, you know) and would not have it any other way. To quote John Wayne, "A man's got to do what a man's got to do."
A special thank you goes to Muncie Guns, Hand and Fork, and to Beech Grove Cemetery, time spent with you meant a lot to him. Michael will be missed by many. "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" Corinthians 5:8
Surviving are his daughter, Amber Patterson (husband, Mike) of Muncie; three grandchildren, Emily Patterson (Logan See), Jaime Patterson (Kenyon Duncan) and Megan Patterson, all of Muncie; one great-grandchild, Mason Patterson; one brother, Phillip Reynolds (wife, Thelma) of Muncie; special friend, Chris at Muncie Guns; and his wife Bernadette "Lehua" Reynolds.
Per his wishes cremation will take place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
" I am kind of homesick for a country to which I've never been before, no sad goodbyes will there be spoken, for time won't matter any more. "
