Dr. Walter Reynolds Memorial Fund
On a normal Monday morning, August 10th, life changed forever for the Reynolds family.
Walter tragically lost his life serving his community as a family doctor.
An unimaginable, horrific act of violence took him away from his loving family.
He was attacked in his office by a patient.
His friends, colleagues and community mourns an exceptional human being lost too soon. We all are devastated and heartbroken.
He was a devout father to two amazing young daughters and a loving husband. He loved to run, be healthy and, most of all spend time with his family.
Funds raised with this campaign will be used towards his daughters’ education.

Former Torrington citizens create new Gopher video for Torrington Gopher Hole Museum
2020 has been a good year for the Torrington Gopher Hole Museum.
With the opening of the museum last week and a successful town fund raising event to benefit a local couple who had a house fire in early July, the community has been a hotbed of community spirit.
“I originally recorded the Gopher Song a long time ago,” said composer/musician Dennis Oster who now lives in Red Deer. “Earlier this year, I got a call from Laural Kurta, who works with the museum now and she said she was having the original cassette restored. I offered to re-record the song and it took 3 takes to get the song right.”
Former Torrington citizen and area historian, Tim Lasiuta, worked with Oster to create a video to celebrate the world famous museum was pleased to be part of the tribute.
“My family lived across the street for many years and I an honored to be part of the community, after all of these years,” said Lasiuta. “There is no official count, but I suspect that close to 200,000 people have been to the small attraction, something that no-one ever would have expected.”
July 24 marked the OFFICIAL world release of the Gopher song and video.
Long live Clem the Gopher!
