Regina was very involved in the family business of raising English Bulldogs. She always followed up with new owners to ensure each puppy arrived with no issues and established many new friendships with the new owners. Having lived in West Plains all her life, she had many friends and would always have time to stop and chat. She was very proud of her son, Trenton, who carried on the family business of granite fabrication and cattle farming after the passing of Bob. Regina was excited and looking forward to the birth of Madison’s baby in January, her first grandchild.

Memorial contributions may be made to the OMC Foundation or Evergreen Cemetery and can be left at Carter Funeral Home, West Plains.
