In Galveston, TX, on August 27, 1982, a beautiful baby boy was born to Reginald Clark, Sr., and Sharon Clark. On May 3, 2023, God, in His abounding love and supreme wisdom, called our beloved Reginald Roderia Clark, Jr., home to be with Him throughout eternity. Reginald, affectionately known as “Lil Reggie,” graduated from Ball High School in 2001. After graduating, he began his career as a Longshoreman with the International Longshoremen’s Association. Reginald worked alongside his grandfather and father until they retired, and continued their legacy throughout his time here on earth. He was the Treasurer of I.L.A. Local 20 and cherished by his union brothers and sisters. Reginald accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior at an early age while attending West Point Missionary Baptist Church. He served in the Youth Department and would occasionally participate in the Male Chorus. On March 1, 2002, Reginald became a father with the birth of his son, Adrien Dante’ Clark, who he loved deeply and fathered well. In 2008, Reginald met the love of his life and on May 7, 2013, Reginald Clark, Jr., and Jesseka James were united in marriage. Reginald gained another son with this union, D’Aundre Harris, who he loved. Reginald will be remembered for his kind heart, generous spirit, self-presentation, and sense of humor. He was dependable and generous, always willing to do what needed to be done to uplift and encourage others. He was often found helping someone do something. His jokes were laughable and lifesaving. Reginald always looked nice, smelled good, and his smile could brighten the darkest day. Reginald was loved by many and will be missed immensely. Reginald was preceded in death by his grandparents, Percy Abner, Jr., Ella Abner, Richard Clark, Jr., and Beatrice Clark; and his uncles, Rasheed Hameed I and Marvin Kelly, Sr. Reginald is survived by his wife, Jesseka Clark; sons, Adrien Clark and D’Aundre Harris; parents, Reginald Clark, Sr., and Sharon Clark; mother-in-love, Sandra Williams (Ervin); sister, Shannon Clark; brother, Joshua Clark (Whitney); sister-in-love, Arleeshia James (Kendall); great-aunt, Marie Edwards; aunts, Shelia Kelly, Beverly Jo Glen, Jacqueline Thomas, Paula Hameed, Lethia Fanuel, and Regina Ball; uncle, Mitchell Ball, Jr.; and nieces and nephews, cousins, extended family, and friends
