He transitioned from his earthly home on February 20, 2025, in the HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital in Panama City, Florida.
He embraced a life filled with love, faith and service, leaving a legacy of kindness and devotion.

Reginald, affectionately known as Chop, Red-Diggity, and Uncle Fen, was a 1980 graduate of Rutherford High School. He was a true fan of the New Orleans Saints. He was united in marriage to the late Lessie Helms. This union created many fond memories.
