He grew up in Mont Belvieu, TX and graduated from Colbert High School.

After his retirement he made his home in Lawton before moving to Temple OK. He worked on FT Sill as a contractor after his retirement from the US Army.  

He received his assignment from God. He gave up his spirit and returned to whence he came. Lastly, there will be no tears in heaven only joy.

He loved his family and friends, his music, traveling to Texas and golfing.  Everyone knows Reggie enjoyed socializing with his family and friends.   Many described him as being likeable and he had a good sense of humor. He was witty and fun to be around. He would love to tell jokes and burn his famous BBQ ribs. His response was “it’s okay home boy.”

If Reggie was here, he would say don’t cry for me, I ‘am following the path God laid for me. Reggie was filled with love and laughter.  God wanted to set him free from all the pain and suffering.
