Personal note from Gates Family

Dear Family and Friends,

It’s with a heavy heart that we share that our father, Reginald E. Gates, passed away peacefully at his home on November 13, 2025.

As we navigate this difficult time and make arrangements in the days ahead, many have already asked how they can help. If you feel moved to do so, donations would be deeply appreciated and can be made through the link below.

In the near future, we plan to hold a small private celebration of life in his honor. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers and thank you all to those who knew and loved him throughout his life. If you knew my dad, he had an incredible and worthwhile ride and we're so blessed that he was ours.

With Love and Kisses to Heaven -

The Gates Family

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” John 14:27
