LACONIA---- Joseph 'Joe' Reynolds, 45, of Parker Street, passed away peacefully at his home, on Monday, January 18, 2021.
Joe was born on December 13, 1975, in Portsmouth, VA, the son of Larry Reynolds and Jeanne (Hall) Johnson.
Joe liked to fish, but he loved to hunt. The only thing Joe loved more than hunting, was his family. He believed a bad day in the woods was better than a good day anywhere else. In 2012,
Joe was able to fulfill a dream of his and opened Average Joes Hunting & Fishing. Owning the store he met so many wonderful people, many of whom became lifelong friends.
His quick smile and ability to tell a great story was something he shared with everyone he met. His sense of humor knew no boundaries, if you met Joe he had made you laugh. This world has lost a beautiful soul and a wonderful man.
Joe loved his family with all of his heart. He leaves behind his wife, Betty Zaremba of Laconia, his daughters, Madison and Phoebe Reynolds of Laconia, his son Joshua Reynolds of Laconia, and his step-son Collin Zaremba of Laconia. He also leaves behind his sister Trisha Stretton and his brother Casey Ratliff, as well as many nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, Joe is predeceased by his son, 'Baby Elijah'.
Due to COVID-19, there will be a private ceremony for the immediate family.
In the spring (prior to Turkey Season), there will be a celebration of his life to honor Joe's memory.
