Tony was born September 2, 1948, in Camilla, Georgia. After graduating from Mitchell County High School, where he was an outstanding basketball player, he attended Georgia Southwestern State University and Albany State College. He continued his basketball career at Georgia Southwestern. After college and his association with several large transportation companies, he served as a Vice President with Lazer Spot, Inc. until his death.
A consummate family man, Tony is survived by his wife of fifty two years, Jean. Others left to mourn his passing include his daughter and son-in-law, Nancy and Leron Haire; son and daughter-in-law, Tony Reynolds, Jr. and Carmen; granddaughters, Kirstin and Clarissa Reynolds and grandson, Jaxson Haire. He is also survived by his sister and brother-in-law, Linda and Bill Hendry; brother, Dewayne Reynolds; and brother and sister-in-law, Dallas Reynolds, Jr. and Judi.
Tony’s favorite pastime was any family activity. He was happiest talking about or watching his grandchildren play school and collegiate sports. Those fortunate enough to know Tony would agree he was the definition of a “southern gentleman “ with a generous and giving heart. His work ethic and loyalty were traits greatly admired by everyone who knew him.
A celebration of life will take place Saturday, March 21, 2020 at 2:00pm at Golden Acres Baptist Church in Phenix City, Alabama.
