  Notes	Facebook Donna Hundley Martin Donna Hundley Martin January 16, 2015 · Atlanta, GA · Today would have been my Grandma Reynolds' birthday. I have so many fond memories of her. Annie Eliza Slaydon Reynolds was one of the kindest women that I have ever known. When she was around 12 (maybe younger), her mother passed away and she quit school to stay at home to take care of the kids and the house. When her father remarried, her step-mother encouraged her to go back to school. Not sure how many more years of schooling she got. Her home was always open to us. I am sure that we probably drove her a little bit crazy because there were kids everywhere, all the time. I do not remember her ever raising her voice to any of us. Teresa probably could answer that question better since she lived with her. Grandma Reynolds had 9 children. She lost her second-born, Basil in World War II. I often think about what she and Grandpa must have felt like when they got the telegram that their oldest son was dead. To know Grandma was to love Grandma. Let's go down memory road: Sandra Reynolds Steve Bonnie Hundley Basil Hundley Andy Hundley Anita Amos Lori Irby Tonya Reynolds Myers Heather Turlington Moses Carl Turlington Jenifer Reynolds (Joey) Tony Coward Spencer Bullington Nancy Hundley Anna Rigney Deidre Reynolds Stone The Slaydon's. Grandma spelled it with a "d". Some others spell it with a "t". Uncle Kenneth for one. Cole's middle name is Slaydon and I labored over how to spell it. After talking to Mama (Sandra) and Nancy it was spelled with a "d". Now he tells me he wishes that was his first name. He loves it. Sandra Reynolds Sandra Reynolds Mother was the best person I have ever known. She always said, "If you can't say something good about someone , don't say anything at all. She followed this rule herself. I was her foot person, I took care of her feet for years and was happy to do it, she appreciated it so much. Glad to do a little something for her after all she did for me. I can remember her reading books to me when I was a little girl, guess that's where I got my love of reading. She never raised her voice to anyone, always so meek, still think of her every day. Wish I had kept all the wonderful informative letters that she wrote me while I lived in Newport News and NY. She wrote to me just about every week. Loved those letters. She told me about Teresa climbing the tree in the front yard in Feb., with only her panties on. It was sleeting out and she wouldn't come down. Mother though it was so funny. Will stop but I could write a book about our sweet grandma Annie.

  [S141] Sandra June Reynolds. You have Aneliza Price Slaydon right but you also have Ann Eliza by her name that is wrong. Her daughter, my grandmother was Annie Eliza Slaydon Reynolds OK sug, that's all for now. Will keep looking. Love you, Sandra [S141] Sandra June Reynolds. Re: Charlie Wade Reynolds: Sandra Reynolds I've wished so often that I had asked more questions while that generations was living. I found out after they were gone that my grandpa, Charlie and Sallie Fannie were first cousins and that he was also first cousin to Jim. Of course I knew he and Jim were great buddies because they would sometimes walk each other back and forth between the stores, stopping every now and then, lean on a fence post, chew tobacco and talk, and laugh. I have wonderful memories of Jim. He always tried to have a big fire going on the cold winter mornings for all of us that got on the school bus there. He also liked to see how close he could spit tobacco juice, without actually hitting you. I loved his laugh!
