With heavy hearts we are reaching out after the passing of our dear friend, Paul Reynolds.

Paul was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer in June and he fought hard until the very end. Paul’s battle left him unable to work while he received medical treatment.

For those of us lucky enough to know Paul, his entrance into a room would always bring a smile to our faces. He lived a life of true authenticity and had the unique gift of making everyone around him feel comfortable.

Many can recall conversations with Paul that inevitably led to a story filled with his great sense of humor. We will cherish his stories from his early days in East Providence, his high school days at LaSalle Academy, his college years at St. Mary’s College in Minnesota, his work travels from the Midwest to the East Coast, and his time in Chicago living with his brother, Pete, and courting the love of his life, Jen. We will miss his stories about watching his two sons, John and Seamus, from the rinks, the fields, and the courts.

Paul was a loving husband to Jen, a great father to his beautiful boys, John and Seamus, and a true friend to all of us. We feel blessed to have known him as a loyal, always willing to lend a hand, shirt off his back kind of friend, and we are forever grateful.

This is a way for us to give back a little of what Paul has given to us and help alleviate some of the financial burden that comes along with the sudden loss of a husband and parent.

Thank you, and may you Rest In Peace our dear friend, Paul.
