We are truly sorry to hear of Reg’s passing. I will miss his humor and stories of his past. I always enjoyed the Rolls Royce
drive for the vets. He is at peace now and with his beloved Audrey.

My condolences on the passing of your father. I got to have some great talks with Reg over the past 6 months, and enjoyed hearing stories of his amazing life. It is an honour to have known him, even for such a short time.

I am sorry to hear the news about Reg. As you know we had many good times together and there will now be no more of those. I’m not sure he would count the time I parked the Rolls and got out without setting the hand brake, but he leant across and fixed the problem and it did give him something to talk about. He will be missed by a good many people.
Please accept condolences from Joy and me.

Reg and Audrey were wonderful friends and neighbors over the years here in the Nunville neighborhood. We shared times and stories together and they will always be remembered as truly generous, gracious and enjoyable friends, sharing fun-loving and amazing stories of their life adventures. Memories of both Reg and Audrey will always bring treasured thoughts to mind.

Steve & Jenny & Trevor , Martin & Donna & Jeremy, Sorry to hear of the loss of Reg, a loving father & grandfather. Haven’t seen Reg around town or in Wishbone for a few years, but have fine memories of his many stories he had to tell of days gone by, from his move to Canada, with Audrey & you boys, his love for his work, you kids, his grandsons & Hawaii & his old car, but most of all his beloved Audrey who he missed dearly. Since she passed away. May he rest in peace & may they be joined together in eternity. Hugs!!

Martin and Steve, I’m so sorry to read of your Dad’s passing. I have many fond memories of him and his wit and humour. A truly remarkable and talented man. I’m sure he’s happy to be with your Mom once again. 92…. what a great long life.

Our sincere condolences go out to Steve, Martin and families. We really enjoyed spending time with Reg. He was a wonderful friend to our Dad Peter and us as well. He always had great stories of his life. Reg said at the end of his stories ” I’ve had a truly wonderful life”. He always mentioned his beloved wife Audrey in his stories. I’m sure they are dancing in Heaven celebrating being together once again.

My condolences to all your families on the loss of Reg.
He was a unique, fun loving talented man. I have many memories of him, as a loyal customer, frequenting our Home Hardware in search of something to solve a creative problem and often arriving with your Mum in the Rolls. In those days our old store was a place where much kidding and chit chat went on and your Dad fit right in with all the locals.
I know you will miss him greatly but you will have many stories and memories to reflect on.
A long life well lived. The mold is truly broken with his passing!
Sincerely, Ann Davidson

Deep condolences to you and your family’s on the loss of your father. We have many fond memories about the times we spent together, not the least of which are all of our weekly rocket ball games and suppers at Baffo’s. Dad and Audrey were great neighbors and we shall miss them dearly!

Steve and Martin;
I’m extremely saddened to hear of Reg’s passing, and extend deep sympathies to you, Jenny, Donna, Trevor and Jeremy. No more listening to the umpteenth version of Story #12 to Story #299! The admiration I had for the old boy when Kate and I met him at a restaurant…having been chauffeured there by a woman half his age. Sigh.
Just two weeks ago I was on Prince of Wales Rd. by Shelburne when I saw his Rolls come toward me, southbound. Driven by a young, dark-haired man I assumed was Trevor. What a wonderful last memory of the best best friends’ father a guy could have; never did he quit the roadtrip…

All the best Martin and Steve, what I remember most is his interesting shop and all the varied projects he worked on in addition to his Morgans, like the Carlesberg wagon. Take care and keep the place running in his memory… Darrell

Steve and Martin:
It was my privilege to drive Reg to many appointments over the last couple of years. On those trips we chatted about many things: Britain, Churchill, his family, politics and, of course, cars.
I will greatly miss him and his dry sense of humour – even if he did occasionally insist on buying lunch!

Steve and Martin,

Wishing you well,

Reg and Audrey were wonderful friends. They were always ready to entertain everyone. They were warm, interesting, and fun. We have many memories of them, Steve and Martin, and their families – in the garage, in their home, and in their garden. May they both rest in peace, for they lived good lives, loved many people. and were kind and patient to everyone.

Great memories of good man

I am truly sorry to hear of Reg’s passing.
I really enjoyed his company and we had some good laughs.
He was a great man and spoke often of his family and Hawaii.
He will be missed.
