About Us
Reynolds Insurance was founded on June 10, 1974 by Paul M. Reynolds.
Paul, a native of Berea, KY was awarded a football scholarship to Kent State University where he played from 1968-1970. After an injury, he transferred to Morehead State University where he received his BS Degree in Business and Accounting. His father in law was an insurance agent and invited Paul to join his agency in Columbus, OH. After completing a one year internship with the Buckeye Insurance Company in Columbus, OH, Paul decided he wanted to go back to his hometown in Berea, KY to start his own agency, thus forming Reynolds Insurance Agency, Inc. In September, 1995 his daughter Carolyn Reynolds joined the agency. Paul served on numerous boards and committees and was District 1 Magistrate for Madison County while also farming over 200 acres and raising Simmental cattle. On October 16, 2021, Paul passed away from a brief battle with Covid. His daughter Carolyn Reynolds is currently the agency President and daughter Katherine Reynolds Vice President, continuing their father’s legacy. Reynolds Insurance is not only known and recognized locally but nationally also, servicing property and casualty insurance and bond needs as a Trusted Choice Independent Insurance Agency representing top national carriers.
