He was born March 7, 1942 in Somerville, MA, to the late William and Mary Reynolds.
Justin Reynolds was EVERYTHING to his family and friends. He had a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone. He always put himself last. He ran a successful real estate and property management company and taught his children the value of hard work.
He was never one to be idle. If he wasn't working at his office he was doing some kind of construction or landscaping at his home. Remodeling, taking down walls, adding on rooms, decks, patios, he did it all. He was the family go to for anything and everything. His head was so full of knowledge. He was a jack-of-all-trades.
He cherished his family and was a great father. He put his wife Marilyn on a pedestal for the 57 years of marriage they had together. Justin loved to travel and had a group of friends and family that he and Marilyn did things with their whole lives. They share wonderful memories with this group.
He always would say he would love to live out on a farm. He loved animals so much, especially his beloved grand dogs. He loved being out on the water in a boat. He loved listening to live orchestra music and he loved just getting in the car and going for long drives. Stopping at the ocean and having some lobster in Maine was a favorite pastime. Then of course he had to have his dessert. He loved his desserts.
As he got sick in the past few years he never would give up. He planted a garden that he was so proud of and that we enjoyed tremendously. He was blessed to have spent Thanksgiving holiday with every family member, which we haven't been able to do in over 20 years, because everybody lives in different states. He loved his family more than anything and he will be missed terribly.
Justin is survived by his loving wife of 57 years, Marilyn Drago Reynolds; son, Kenneth Paul Reynolds; daughters, Linda Marie Reynolds-Hochertz and Debbie Jean Reynolds; grandchildren, Michael Reynolds, Renee Plant (Nick), Danielle Reynolds, Taylor Hochertz and Tiffany Hochertz; great-grandchildren, Owen Plant and Amelia Plant; brother, William Reynolds (Marie) ; sister, Dotti Reynolds Donovan (the late Jack Donovan) and several extended family members.
