TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF CHRISTOPHER GRADY REYNOLDS, SR., AND TO EXTEND DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS LOVING FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives was saddened to learn of the death of Christopher Grady Reynolds, Sr., of Hodges at the age of sixty-one on August 20, 2022; and

Whereas, born in Greenwood on January 13, 1961, he was the son of the late Grady and Leila Lauvenia Reynolds and grew up in a loving home with sisters Lisa Reynolds, Jennifer Walker, and the late Sheila Renee Reynolds. He graduated from Greenwood High School and was a member of the Junior ROTC and rifle team; and

Whereas, Mr. Reynolds worked for Greenwood Mills and then joined the United States Navy, serving on board the U.S.S. Stump and U.S.S. Ticonderoga during multiple conflicts, including Desert Shield and Desert Storm; and

Whereas, a devoted family man, he reared three fine children with his beloved wife of thirty-one years, Olivia: Lindsey Reynolds; Christopher Reynolds, Jr.; and Emily Reynolds, all of Greenwood. His children blessed him with the affection of two grandsons, Christopher Reynolds III and Jarrett Reynolds to whom he was Papa, a playmate, and a keeper of the batteries for their toys; and

Whereas, a faithful member of New Market Baptist Church, Mr. Reynolds served the congregation as a deacon. He lovingly cared for his wife and children: cooking, baking, maintaining the home, or servicing their car. His family was his greatest joy. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Christopher Grady Reynolds, Sr., and extend deepest sympathy to his loving family and his many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Christopher Grady Reynolds, Sr.
