In Memory John Adam Regan John Adam Regan, pronounced Reegun (1958-1981), or Reegz as we called him was a Junior at Emerson and a member of the Class of 1982. A Mass Comm major specializing in film, Reegz played an active role in productions of the Emerson Comedy Workshop, worked for EIV on a Watkins Glen Grand Prix documentary and was a brother of Alpha Pi Theta. During his time at Emerson he was one of the most visable and popular students on campus. Those of us who knew Reegz found him to possess a dry sense of humor; he loved puns and sick jokes. He prided himself on his ability to respond quickly with a good line. His imitation of Skipper on Gilligan’s Island — “Hey Little Buddy” — holds special meaning to many. Not really an outgoing person, he kept pretty much to himself until he knew you, then he opened up. A warm smile, a kind word, a sarcastically spoken unkind one, his thoughtfulness and generosity all made Reegz an excellent friend. He would do anything for you. When John died of cancer on February SO, 1981 he had been in Mass General for over 12 weeks. From the time he was admitted (Thanksgiving Day 1980) until he passed away the constant parade of people in and out of his room made it seem like he was back in his dorm at Fensgate. Posters on the walls, balloons floating around, scattered books and magazines and an outrageous puppet: it didn’t seem like a hospital room at all. The Emerson community responded to his death in the way Reegz would have wanted. After the burial the upstairs of Crossroads was opened up and free beer was provided for everyone by the owner and John’s older brother Jim. Reegz had worked there one night as a dishwasher then promptly quit. We drank, told stories of Reegz, dedicated a bar stool to him and tied one on good in his name. It was a party for a man who loved to party. The following week Emerson College gave Regan a Memorial Service in the First and Second Church. In a personal but comic reflection John Kaplan recalled his two and a half year friendship with Reegz. The honesty of his remarks were well appreciated. John Regan in his 22 years made sure that those who knew him would not forget him. As a fraternity brother I was fortunate to have shared some unforgetable moments with him. Reegz we all loved you. Thanks. By Robert C. Rycroft 15 4
