— John & Patti Weber, March 11, 2017My sympathy goes out to you Shirley and the family on your loss. I knew and worked with Reg in the early 60\\'s with the Carr boys in Owen Sound and in the later years at Texas Transport in Orangeville, Ontario. He was a real truckers hero and a real Gentleman.

— Carol and john MacDonald, March 11, 2017Shirley and family. I am so sorry for your loss. Wish I had made it over to Mt. Forest for a visit on one of my trips back east. The last time I saw him was when I took mom and dad for a visit back when you still had your place near Shelburne and he was showing off the big rig parked in the garage. My prayers are with you and your family. Take care.
