Reggie, Rebecca and families:

Reflecting back over the years I realize that we make our friends and enemies but GOD makes our next door neighbors and a good neighbor is an awesome blessing !!

My Mom and I share in your loss and know that through the faith that you share as a family you will realize that when the LORD called Reggie home he left you a gift of memories that will last forever. Remember to cherish that gift always and take comfort in knowing that there is one more angel in heaven above.

Our thoughts, prayers and friendship are with you all.

Love and GOD Bless
