- Best Man for his only son was Samuel Lovelace Reynolds. One groomsman for his first cousin also born on the same day was Forrest Lee Moses, Jr., his 1st cousin. They were born on the same day, 4 hours apart.
Joe & Sue both attended University of William and Mary, met and married soon after graduation.
Joe was recruited by Travelers Insurance Co. while still in college and remained an employee for his entire working life. He began his career in sales and ultimately was manager of group sales. He retired shortly before his death.
Joe died from adenocarcinoma. His diagnosis was made six months before he died. The doctors said that this type of cancer is very slow growing and may have been present for as long as 20 years and by the time it is discovered there is no way to tell where the cancer started.
He enjoyed sports, played golf and put himself through William & Mary on a tennis scholarship. His involvement with tennis was a result of his therapy when he was recovering from polio. The "serve" in tennis exercised both his arm and leg that was affected by the polio.

Notes |
Joseph Welch Reynolds, brother of Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston contracted polio when he was 13 years old. Unlike many victims, he recovered almost completely and was left with only a weakness in his left leg, ultimately until his death.
Joseph Welch Reynolds was named for his mother's brother, Joseph Alpha Carter, Jr. who died the year he was born; and the Welch name came from Mr. William Welch Clark who was the protector of his father, Samuel Lovelace Reynolds. After the death of his mother, Mary Lou (Molly) Reynolds, Mr. Clark took Sam under his wing and educated him. Molly, who died when Sam was 15 years old, contracted appendicitis, it ruptured, and she died of Sepsis. Mr. Welch Clark lived in a historic house on Main Street, Danville, VA and was a well know bachelor who traveled widely and is remembered by even distant family members and community members as having brought back from a trip to Florida, an alligator for a pet. See photograph of Mr. Welch Clark and his alligator from circa 1918-1921. Mr. Clark never married and had no issue, but my father loved him as though he was his father.
