A former State Representative known for his fierce anti-abortion stance has died of complications from stomach cancer. David Reynolds was 66. Reynolds served in the Missouri House for four terms. Reynolds won a seat as State Representative after serving 18 years on the Florissant City Council. Term limits forced him out and he then made two unsuccessful runs for Florrissant mayor. In the House, Reynolds often found himself in the thick of pro-life, pro-choice arguments that erupted during floor debate – especially arguments over whether Planned Parenthood should receive state money. Reynolds worked as technician illustrator for McDonnell Aircraft in St. Louis.
