Alex Spiceley takes a look at his life and his legacy
Tributes have been paid to much-loved Normandy veteran Bill Reynolds, who died in Jersey this week at the age of 100.
He was one of two surviving islanders who fought in the D-Day landings, laying the foundations for the Allies' victory during the Second World War.
After the war, Bill ran a successful wholesaler and became one of Jersey's leading racing drivers.
Today friends have described him as a "real-life hero" with "a great sense of humour".
His daughter Jacquie Callaghan says: "He was a big part of my life and I loved him very very much and I'm a very proud daughter."
