"It matters not how a man dies,
but how he lives"
(Samuel Johnson)
Reg found inspiration and enjoyment through working, problem solving and helping others. He showed dedication and compassion throughout his entire life from fishing guide in his youth to Project Manager at Midwest Engineering until his death. Reg treasured his many friendships and wishes to leave everybody with a shared sense of life and humour.
Reg was predeceased by his parents, John and Olive Harrington. He is survived by his life partner Jen Unwin, daughter Paige Sydney, son Arthur Louie; siblings, David, Tim, Sue, Darlene (Rob), and much-loved extended family.
A celebration of Reg's life is pending in these uncertain times.

Please accept our deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one. We have lived across the street for 54 years and have watched all the children grow. Our son Rob knew Reg when all the kids on this wonderful street knew one another. We have watched Paige and Artie grow into fine young adults. Even though you don't really know us we knew Olive very well and wanted to reach out to you at this sad time. Our Prayers are with you Bob and Mimi Chrystal - Posted by: Mimi and Bob Chrystal (Neighbor) on: Apr 24, 2020

Uncle Reg was always good to me as a kid. Very kind heart. I remember having family dinners at grandma and grandads and uncle reg and grandad would be sitting at the kitchen table Grandad would be telling his famous stories and reg would always listen. They could talk for hours. Many great memories growing up together. Sending all my love! - Posted by: Sarah Moore (Uncle) on: Apr 23, 2020

I worked with Reggie at Midwest. I don't think I ever saw Reg in a bad mood. He was a natural problem solver and never seemed to get flustered. He had a knack for finding the humor in every situation. His Big smile was contagious and you couldn't help but feel better after talking with him. He will surely be missed and is Irreplaceable. My heart felt condolences to Jenn, Paige and Artie. - Posted by: Ryan ((Co-Worker)) on: Apr 23, 2020

Reg was a friend who came in and out of my life foe more than 30 years. Always welcome, always a gentleman, always smarter than me. Reg worked for me for a while and I have an image in my mind of him driving Joe Truck, a 1950 Ford, with great enthusiasm, much faster than he should have. My life was enriched for his presence and I will miss him. - Posted by: Allan Hamer (Friend) on: Apr 23, 2020
