Truman Lee Reynolds

Truman Reynolds went to be with the Lord on March 1, 2024, at the age of 81. Truman was born on March 30, 1942, to parents George and Elizabeth Reynolds in Cairo, Missouri. . 

Truman married the love of his life, Lorna Thompson, on August 15, 1964. Together, they cherished 56 years of marriage, raising their children with love and dedication.

He is survived by his children, Michael (Heather) Reynolds of Glasgow, Missouri; Candace (Gary) Winn of St. Louis, Missouri; Timothy (Jada) Reynolds of St. Augustine, Florida. Truman was a beloved grandfather to Tyler (Lyndsie), Ryan, of St. Louis, Missouri and Jordan Winn of Denver, Colorado; Tanner and Brooklyn Reynolds of St. Augustine, Florida; Erin (Tyler) Fleet of Lubbock, Texas; Anne and Molly Reynolds of Columbia, Missouri; Hadley Sanders of Columbia, Missouri; Darby Reynolds of Fayette, Missouri; Layne Sanders of Glasgow, Missouri.

Truman was preceded in death by his wife, Lorna and sisters Betty and Judy.

Truman honorably served his country in the United States Marine Corps from 1962-1966 and later retired from Mid-Am Building Supplies after 35 years of dedicated service.

Truman had a successful basketball career at Cairo High School and was recently recognized as a member of the 1,000 Point Club. Following his basketball days, he found joy in quail hunting and training bird dogs, spending countless weekends in the fields from November through December. As he approached his thirties, Truman discovered a new passion for golf. He was a founding member of the Cairo Open golf tournament and participated in every tournament with the exception of this past summer. Despite not being able to play, he still made time to drive his golf cart around and watch the tournament unfold. His golf career included not one, not two, but 8 hole-in-one on four different courses. In recent years, he looked forward to playing the morning golf game at Heritage Hills. 

Truman’s greatest joy came from spending time with his family. He often said the best two titles a man could have, were Dad and Papa.
