sending deepest sympathies to Reno's family, especially Christine, Janie, Jennifer and Reno Junior.
i had the pleasure of working with Reno in Steptoe and Son, which beyond the doubt was the best job in the world. Reno made everyone who came to the market welcome, he was always there with a smile, telling rude jokes, entertaining both those who worked with him and customers with lots of funny stories.
Reno also scared the death out of me when he would drive us to work. the cars him and Fred had were proper bangers, with holes in the floors and roof and rust all the way through. Reno was also not one for indicating when driving saying "they should know where i'm going"
Reno and Fred's relationship was unique, they squabbled like an old couple, but loved each other so much.
i can only imagine the heartbreak you are all going through. but hopefully the loving memories people share about Reno will make you smile.
i will raise a glass tonight in memory of a special man who was loved and respected by many.
sending my love to you all
