William Thomas Reynolds ’55

Bill, an opera lover, died Oct. 20, 2003, of a heart attack as he climbed the steps of the Paris Opera House while on vacation in France.

A son of William Wynkoop Reynolds '18, he attended public schools in Scranton, Doylestown, and Forty Fort, Pa. At Princeton, Bill was a student at the Woodrow Wilson School and a member of Terrace Club. Harvard Law School soon followed. As

legal counsel to various corporations, Bill handled numerous acquisitions, mergers, and investments.

Bill was a true New Yorker. He loved the life of the city, particularly its theater, art, concerts, and restaurants. Bill also loved the country. He hiked along the Appalachian Trail, and in England from the Irish Sea to the North Sea. He did this while also owning a racehorse.

After he retired in 1996, this Renaissance man left the city behind for the country life of the Berkshires.

In addition to his wife, Kay, Bill is survived by his brother, David *75, and other family members. The class has lost a tall and gentle man, one at ease with the many paradises on the other side of Princeton.
