To Officer Reginald Cryer's Family. I am deeply sorry for the loss of a Brother whom I worked with in the earlier 1980's at Orleans Parish Sherriff Department. For those years, myself and Reginald became best friends and always kept in touch until the later 1990s. I just found out today about my brother passing. Just to let his family know that I am so sorry to have heard about Reginald. My Heart goes out to each and everyone of you. I will always keep his family in my Prayer. I remember when I meet his first child when he lived on Panola St, He was a very happy father telling me the story about what he was going to do as the child grew older. Take care and God be with Reginald Dryer's Family
