Reggie was the son of Robert and Betty (Larson) Schow. He was born February 2, 1953 in Willmar. Reggie grew up in the Willmar and Blomkest area and graduated from Willmar High School with the class of 1971. After graduation, Reggie worked with his dad and brother Nathan on the family farm. In 1972, he married Peggy Ferguson, his high school sweetheart. They made their first family home in rural Danube where they welcomed their first child, Kyle.  They later moved to the family farm in Blomkest where they completed their family, with daughter Sara.

Reggie loved spending time with his family and friends at the cabin on Green Lake and at Lake of the Woods. He also enjoyed farming, watching movies, fishing, watching his grandchildren play sports, riding his Harley and listening to some great music…loudly,  around bonfires.
