There weren’t too many people, places, businesses or organizations in Maple Grove untouched by Jim Reynolds, who passed away on March 3, 2009 at the age of 48 after a seven-year battle with a brain aneurism. But thanks to the support of his countless friends and loving family members, his name will live on to help others, as he so often did.  
The Jim Reynolds Foundation is set to officially launch January 16 at 7 p.m. with the kind of party Jim would dig. Come to the lower level of the JRA Building (7373 Kirkwood Court, Maple Grove, MN 55369) to enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, followed by a program, live auction and entertainment. Tickets are $20 in advance and $30 at the door. Donations can be made and advanced tickets can be purchased at the Jim Reynolds Foundation website: http://jimreynoldsfoundation.com/. 
The Jim Reynolds Foundation, a non-profit organization, will work to support research and development specific to brain aneurysm identification and treatment. Any monetary donations are tax deductible and can be made out to:
“James R. Reynolds Memorial Fund for Brain Aneurysm Research”
Attn: Jim Reynolds Foundation
PO Box 1403
Maple Grove, MN 55369.
Maple Grove Magazine will include a feature story about Jim and his legacy in its March 2010 issue.
