Benjamin D Reynolds, of South Gibson, died Sunday morning February 11, 1934, at the home of his daughter-in-law, Mrs Frank B Reynolds, Kingston, PA. He was stricken with paralysis last week and continued to fail until his death. His age was 89 years, and he was South Gibson's oldest resident.
Mr Reynolds was a native of Beaver Meadows, Carbon Co, PA (near Hazleton), and went to South Gibson when a young man. For forty years he conducted a store in that place, retiring some years ago. He was a splendid citizen in every way, and had a wide circle of friends throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania. He was active in working for the interests of his community, and a faithful member of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Mr Reynolds went to Kingston on Thanksgiving Day, owing to the death of his son. He had remained in the home since that time, and had been quite ill much of the time.
He is survived by two daughters, Mrs Mary C Risley, of South Gibson, and Miss Bessie L Reynolds, a teacher in a school at Bryn Mawr, PA; a son, Dr Harry F Reynolds, a physician in Pasadena, CA; and one brother, Attorney John F Reynolds of Carbondale.
The body was brought to South Gibson, and the services held Tuesday afternoon. A prayer service was held in the home at 1:30 pm and in the Methodist church at 2:00 pm, the Rev J A Rice officiating. Interment was in South Gibson cemetery.
