  [S42] Obituary. FREDERICK, MD Charley William Reynolds, formerly of York and Hyattsville, Md., surrounded by his loving family, passed into eternity Sunday evening, June 7, 2015 in Frederick. Mr. Reynolds was born January 30, 1917 to the late James Allen Reynolds and Sallie Fannie Wells and grew up on Pittsylvania County, Va. Charley was raised in the Callands area during the Depression and, at 17, moved to Washington, D.C. in search of work. Soon after that, at the start of WWII, he signed up with the Army and volunteered as a paratrooper. He and his bride, Virginia Tate Reynolds and soon their young son, Billy, lived in Georgia. In the later years of WWII, Charley was sent out to Europe where he continued training paratroopers and occasionally made jumps into the enemy territory. After the war, Charley and Virginia set up housekeeping in the Washington, D.C. area and soon there were three children. Then they moved to a larger house in Hyattsville. He and Virginia raised their five children and ran a floor finishing business in the Washington area until his retirement in 1989. At retirement the couple moved to York where they enjoyed 26 years of morning breakfasts at the Village Green and an active retirement. Charley is survived by his dear wife of 73 years, Virginia Tate; their five children, Bill (Katherine) Reynolds of Bloomfield, N.J., Richard (Linda) Reynolds of College Park, Md., Linda Reynolds of Hong Kong, China, Robert (Jackie) Reynolds of Frederick, and Roger (Diane) Reynolds of Barnesville, Ohio; as well as 16 grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.
