Roderick Reynolds, a father of five is trying to find a way to tell is children that the house he has been fixing up is now completely gone…
Reynolds has been working on a house in Detroit to fix it up for the past year. He is an independent contractor and was almost done fixing the house up for his family to call home, after putting in around $50,000 into the house. But now, it’s been burned nearly to the ground and Reynolds doesn’t know how he will come back from this or what he is going to tell his family.
A GoFundMe page has been set up for Reynolds and his family to help them rebuild. With $100,000 as the goal, the page has already more than doubled–almost tripled–that amount. If you would like to donate too, click here.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
