To Phyllis and the Reynolds children,
I wish to express my sympathy to all of you on the loss of your husband and father. I have fond memories of the Reynolds family from my days of teaching at St. Jude's. Be assured of a special remembrance in my prayers.

My deepest sympathies to the Reynolds family! Your home always exuded energy and "family" and I have happy memories of my friendship with Jimmy. Having just lost my Mom, I share in your sorrow. Frank Joyce and his team have put together a wonderful tribute, as they did for us! Prayers... MJ

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Larry will surely be missed by everyone who's life he touched, which is virtually everyone he ever met! My deepest sympathy to the entire Reynold's family. May God be with you during this most difficult time. May you see Larry in the mannerisms of each other, in the sparkle in each other's eyes, in a laugh, a saying, a hug or when you hear a certain song that he used to

My deepest sympathy to Phyllis and the Reynolds Family on their loss. I feel privileged for the many years I enjoying dancing sets to Larry's fiddle and playing tunes with him at the Green Briar sessions. We will miss his great, kind, and generous presence, but we will keep the music he gave us in our hearts, feet, and fingers forever. Thank you, Larry!

The music never really started until Larry played.
