Phil is semi-retired, working part time for Soule’s Auto Parts in Chelsea and part time in his own garage on the Plains Road in Litchfield.
Their daughter, Amy Reynolds, and her husband, Bill, were hosts of the party. They live in Skillman, New Jersey, just north of Princeton. The couple’s two grandchildren, Calista and David, attended the festivities, with Calista circulating the guest book.
Guests attended from New Jersey, Connecticut, and throughout Maine.
