Hundreds turn out to pay tribute to 'oldest paperboy'
FAMILY, friends and customers packed out Kingsdown Crematorium to pay their respects to ‘the oldest paperboy in the country’.
More than a hundred people attended Charlie Reynolds funeral this afternoon.
Tributes were paid to the Stratton-born newsagent owner, who was still working at his son’s kiosk in Ermin Street two weeks before his death.
Charlie, 96, died on February 27, after suffering a fall on his bike outside the shop, breaking his hip and then picking up a chest infection whilst at hospital.
The funeral ended with Matt Monro’s, For All We Know.
