Reagen found a permanent home in West Virginia this year, where she purchased her first home shared with her companion, Brandon. Her infectious spirit, sense of humor, and a radiant inner light made her a beloved presence in the lives of those around her. Reagen had a deep connection with her family, cherishing moments with her niece Charlie and her dogs, Cash and Moola. Shopping and traveling with her mom were two of her favorite pastimes, especially since her mother paid for everything! Reagen's unique spirit was complemented by her relentless pursuit of dreams. It was always a new adventure. She had courage. She would jump in a car and drive anywhere, in the bat of an eye. She was a lion with the heart of a lamb. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of everyone that she touched. Everyone dies, but not all people really live, but Reagen lived her life to the fullest!!
