I apologize--I sent a note where I asked Norman to text me, but I left the wrong number. It should be: 757-206 - six - one - five - eight. Again, my condolences at Reggie's passing.

To Deanna and family, our deepest condolences for your loss. As long time friends of you and Reggie, you're all in our thoughts and prayers as you all go through this time of sorrow.
To Reggie, a friend since our teenage years, one of these days you and I will once again share a bottle of Jack Daniels while sitting, talking, and laughing at bad jokes.
Rest in peace, my friend!
