REYNOLDS: William Robert (Bill) of Exeter

Reynolds, William Robert (You probably know him as Bill) entered eternal life on Saturday, September 3, 2016 at LHSC-University Hospital in London.  His spirit is carried on by his companion Velma Hannah, 2 children Jason Reynolds, and Maggie Reynolds, daughter-in-law Naomi Reynolds, 4 grandchildren, 2 surviving siblings, and an extended family of relations and friends from all walks of life.  Bill coached minor baseball teams in his earlier years and has been a 20 year active Lions Club member.  He enjoyed many summers at his trailer playing bocce ball.  Socializing with friends and family were an important part of Bill’s life.

We would like you to be a part of a celebration of life in honour of Bill at the Centralia Community Centre, 148 Melbourne Street, Centralia on Sunday, September 11th from 2-4 PM.  Donations to the Exeter Minor Ball Association would be appreciated by Bill’s family.
