Terrell Reagan – February 18, 2025

 

Terrell’s son, Clayton Reagan, posted this picture and tribute to his father on Instagram. He included several other photos. To see the entire montage, visit his Instagram page.

With heavy hearts we said good by to our father last week. He was a movie star, author, business man, father and an absolute force of nature. He was always quick with a joke, unapologetically himself, never short on stories, and saw an adventure at every corner. I like to think he passed these traits on to me.

We shared a birthday and this last year he was in Austin I was fortunate to share many good times with him as well. We rocked out to Elvis to the very end. He will be missed. See you on the other side “Slick Silver.”
