His third wife was a French-Canadian named Denese D'Arcy. Her manner and ways were foreign to her western North Carolina neighbors to the degree that she fell misjudged and misunderstood. It didn't take her long to decide to leave the area. Bob was not interested in moving from his ''little gem city of the mountains,'' so they parted ways and were divorced.

Next, ''Our Bob'' married Eva Brady, a former Zigfield Follies' girl on February 27. 1931 She was born June 5, 1904 and died December 13. 1934. the daughter of James Maurice Brady.

In 1941 he married Evalyn Washington McLean, daughter of Edmund '' Ned '' McLean, one time publisher of the Washington Post, and Evalyn Walsh McLean. well-known Wash­ington socialite and owner of the Hope Diamond.

Bob and Evalyn had one daughter, Mamie Spears (Reynolds) Gregory, born October 15, 1942. Mamie and her husband Joseph Gregory, currently maintain residences in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Louisville, Kentucky. and in California. Her mother died in 1946 when Mamie was a child.

After Evalyn's death, Bob Reynolds moved from Washington back to Asheville to raise Mamie. He attempted a political come-back in 1950, running for the U.S. Senate once again, but was unsuccessful. They lived in his home of oak logs and native field stone high on the side of "Reynolds Mountain'' on a 250 acre ranch in northwest Asheville. He died of heart failure after a long bout with cancer, on February 13, 1963. He is buried at Riverside Cemetery in Asheville, N.C.
