Reginald was a man of remarkable depth, intellect, and faith. Born in Chicago, he carried a sharp mind and a lifelong passion for learning.

He loved God deeply and found immense joy in reading His words daily. An incredibly intelligent man, Reginald was a true conversationalist—he could talk about anything and everything, and if you had a question, he always seemed to know the answer.

In his youth, his love for baseball took him all the way to Minnesota, where he had the opportunity to play at the college level and earned his bachelor's degree. But Reginald's talents extended far beyond the classroom and the ball field; he was a man of amazing, unique artistry who could meticulously handcraft beautiful dolls from paper.

Above all, Reginald was a lover of the heart. He fell deeply in love, and that love became the cornerstone of his life.

In the words of his wife: "My beloved husband was a sweet man who fulfilled the joy in my life. We grew stronger in Christ together. I love you, Reginald, and I miss you, baby.
