We'll Miss You, Reg.

My name is Rob Alicea, and over the past year, I’ve had the honor and privilege of working alongside Gigi Bannister and Russell GreWulf Mauck to help create this website to honor the life and work of Reggie Bannister.

Reggie has always been a hero of mine, going all the way back to Phantasm II: The Ball Is Back (to this day, one of my favorite horror movies). But as I got to know Gigi, Russell, and Reggie, I also had the privilege of learning just how incredible a man Reggie truly was.

Gigi, I have the utmost respect for you and for all the love, care, strength, and devotion you showed Reggie throughout your life together. Your strength and courage are beyond inspiring. While nothing can ease the pain of this loss, please know how deeply Reggie is loved by us all.

Reg, I never got the chance to tell you just how much you’ve meant to me, both as a person and as an artist. But I’m so grateful that you got to see officialreggiebannister.com come to life and, in some small way, witness just how many lives you've impacted - both on and off the screen.

'Til we meet again,

Rob and the Phans
