David Reynolds, age 66, died Wednesday 12 October 2022 in Carrollton, Georgia after a long ordeal with cancer.

He was born Thursday 22 March 1956, to Joseph and Annalee (Southerland) Reynolds, in Marion, Indiana.

His family moved around northern Indiana during his childhood. He graduated from West Noble High School in 1974.

After graduating with Distinction on Saturday 12 May 1979, with a Bachelor of Science degree from the School of Management at Purdue University, he went to work for Superior Sample in Carrollton. Years later, he took a job in sales with Mac Papers in Atlanta, where he stayed until retiring from full-time employment. In retirement, he got restless and took a part-time job driving a bus for the Carrollton City Schools. Dave loved motorcycles, the older and more unusual, the better. While in high school, he worked for Hayden Honda in Kendallville, Indiana, uncrating and assembling new motorcycles, and spending a lot of time on the business end of a broom. He was a member of the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association (AHRMA). He competed in AHRMA Observed Trials events, and occasionally served as their Trials Master during the Barber Vintage Festival at the Barber Motorsports Park in Leeds, Alabama. Off and on for more than 30 years, he taught motorcycle safety.

Dave is survived by his children, Ariel and Aaron; Ariel's spouse, Lacey Buckingham; his former wife, Amanda (Sauls); his sister, Teresa Reynolds Farris; his brother, Jefferson Reynolds; his sister-in-law, Julie Hartman Reynolds; 3 nephews; 2 nieces; and many, many dear friends.

He was a long-time member of Saint Margaret's Episcopal Church in Carrollton, where he, his wife and children participated in many areas of service. He was caregiver to his mother and father and to Amanda's parents in the later years of their lives. He did a lot of things for a lot of people in quiet, unassuming ways, never claiming credit for himself. He was generous to a fault with his time and resources. We all hoped, and some of us prayed, that Dave would have many more years with us, communing on the front porch or around a campfire, helping us build or restore things that we never will on our own, or maybe, just maybe, going on one or two more, long and glorious road trips.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 12, 2022 at 3:00 PM at St. Margaret's Episcopal Church with Rev. Jeff Jackson officiating.  A reception will follow in Parish Hall.

In lieu of flowers the family requests memorial donations be made to St. Margaret's Episcopal Church, 606 Newnan Street, Carrollton, Georgia 30117 or a charity of choice in Mr. Reynold's memory.
