Reginald BARTLETT Obituary

It is with heavy hearts that the Bartlett family announces the passing of our cherished "Dad" (Reg), at home in Waimate on Wednesday, April 2, 2025. Reg was the cherished husband of Joanee, a proud Dad of Shelley and Renee, and the dearly loved Dad of Anton, Dylan, and Luke. He was also the treasured Dad of Jemimah and Jai, and a doting Grandad to Parris, Leo, and Louie. Whether racing his Ford Escort (#85) at Teretonga, powerlifting, or sharing his upholster skills, Reg left a lasting impact on all who knew him. In keeping with Dad's wishes, a private celebration of his life will take place in Waimate at a later date. Messages can be sent to 16 Mill Road, Waimate 7924.
We'll carry his warmth, wisdom, and laughter in our hearts always.

I will remember Reg for his articulate workmanship and teaching skills for they way he held is whole family in high esteem and talked and shared of the many achievments they had and were acquiring.
My heart goes out to all Reg's family.

Sending heartfelt condolences to you all. I have many fond memories of a fun loving Reg, his passion for cars, weight lifting & teaching his upholstery skills to so many people. Such great times were enjoyed by all at Reg´s social club on a Friday night for many years. A very sad loss, RIP Reg.
