So sorry to hear of the loss of this truly great and inspiring man who still had so much to offer the community. Reg was the man who got me involved with circus work which led me to many years teaching children the skills of the circus as well as performing in front of live audiences, which I never would have done without his inspiration. A man I will truly miss deeply and always regret not taking more time to keep in contact with. At least now we know the angels will all be able to join the rest of us in a juggle when we follow to the heavens. Thanks for everything Reg.
