He was born on Aug. 26, 1929, in Glendive, the son of Frank Thomas and Ottilia "Tillie" (Klarmann) Reynolds. He received his early education in Glendive schools and graduated from Dawson County High School with the class of 1947. He attended Creighton University in Omaha, Neb., from 1950-1955, where he earned a bachelor of science degree in business administration.
He married Margaret Dufner on Aug. 26, 1953, in Glendive. While living in Omaha, he and Marge had their first born child and upon Jack's graduation from college they returned to Glendive where he was employed by the F.T. Reynolds Company. He worked for the F.T. Reynolds Company his entire career. He served as president for approximately 10 years, and at the time of his death was the chief executive officer. He served on the Board of Directors of Associated Foods Stores, the primary supplier to the Reynolds stores, from 1988 to 1996.
He and Marge traveled on many fun and exciting trips, both in the United States and abroad. As an avid fisherman, he enjoyed many fishing trips with family and friends and enjoyed the distinction of having "out fished" all of his children.
He loved to visit, whether about cuts of meat, the price of groceries, vehicles or politics. One often didn't have to add any words, but only provide a listening ear and an occasional nod. He had a sense of humor, a belly laugh and a kind heart. Generosity was a character trait that ran deep. Above all, he loved his family and was very proud of his boys, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by one son, Robert, in 1980; and one brother, Paul Reynolds.
Survivors include his wife, Marge, of Glendive; four sons, Thomas Reynolds and his wife, Patty, and William Reynolds and his wife, Jacki, all of Glendive, Randall Reynolds and his wife, Lourdes, of Miles City, and John Reynolds and his wife, Elena, of Sidney; two sisters, Rita McGovern and Marylin Hoffman, both of Glendive; two brothers, Richard Reynolds and his wife, Rita, of Glendive and Robert Reynolds and his wife, Ann, of Sacramento, Calif.; grandchildren, Joshua Reynolds, Jessica Huber and her husband, Travis, Jeffrey Reynolds and his wife, Adrienne, Julie Peterson and her husband, Marty, Robert Reynolds, Maria Reynolds, Antonia Reynolds, Nicholas Reynolds, Shayla Reynolds, Angela Reynolds and Elizabeth Reynolds; and great-grandchildren, Logan Peterson and Emersyn Huber; and a host of extended family.
