Cullman Funeral Home is honored to serve the family.

A proud graduate of West End High School's Class of 1967, Reginald distinguished himself early as a talented three-sport athlete, carrying the discipline and determination he learned on the field throughout his life.

He built a respected career as a master plumber, lending his skills to small businesses, large corporations, and eventually his own independent work. Beyond his professional life, Reginald's greatest joy came from time spent with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Patsy Clay; a sister, Debbie Moody.

Survivors include his son, Brad (Bonnie) Clay; daughter, Dana (Brett) Thompson; brothers, Garry (Carol) Clay, Keith (Richann) Clay; grandchildren, Becket, Brendan, Declan, Savannah (Andrew), Sebastion, Sadie, Silas, Lexie (Brandon), Faith;  great-grandchildren, Mavis, Murphy; family and friends.

The family would like to say a special thank you to Affinity Hospice and Summerford Nursing Home for the special care given to their father.
