Reginald- there is not a day that goes by that I don't think- WHY- What a tragic waste. We were good mates and you certainly inspired us Berede SWA Spes Boys over the 2 Year's. Your adventures -Playing Rugby in Hong Kong-Making new tracks up Table Mountain-Playing Polo- Camping with your horse JB at Kommetjie- You were going to teach me how to surf you bugger. You were a party animal with songs like Boys Light up but dead serious about being the best at your task's. A true leader-That's how you became our corporal .Your goals were so clear .A life - A plan so perfect and you were so close to finishing ,then it happened- Mate- I am so Sorry - The World and everybody that knew you lost a great champion.
Reggie, an old school and army mate.......lost touch so many years ago, often think about the rugby we played together, the friends we had and lost. I'm priviledged to be able to call myself a friend of yours.
