September 14th, 1947 – July 13th, 2026

Richard Cleveland “RC” Reynolds, beloved husband, father, grandfather, veteran, and friend, passed away peacefully on July 13, 2026.

Known to nearly everyone as “RC,” he will be remembered for his unwavering love for his family, his strength, and his remarkable singing voice. 

Music was one of his greatest gifts, and those fortunate enough to hear him sing will forever cherish those memories. His warmth, humor, and caring spirit left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.

RC proudly served his country as a member of the 82nd Airborne Division. His military service reflected the courage, dedication, and resilience that he carried throughout his life.

He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Richard Cleveland Reynolds, Claire (Peggy) Reynolds, and grandson, Aubrey Cleveland Reynolds.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory his loving wife, Linda Reynolds; his son, Brian Reynolds and his wife, Teresa; his daughter, Christy Reynolds and her fiancĂ©, Kelley; his son, Anthony Reynolds; his daughter, Holly Rotondo; and his treasured grandchildren, Brianna (Bb), Hayley, Kayla, Scarlett, Serenity, and Violet. 

He also leaves behind extended family members and many dear friends who will miss him deeply.

Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing that RC’s legacy of love, laughter, music, and service will live on through all who knew him.

His song may have ended here on earth, but its melody will continue in the hearts of those who loved him. Forever loved. Forever remembered. Forever our RC.
