Reg Park: The Passing of an Icon – Iron Game History – May, 2008

Reg died on 22 November 2007 at age 79, and within 48 hours newspapers all over the world were carrying the sad news. Rarely has a bodybuilder’s passing had such a swift and sympathetic reaction. Partly because of the current wealth of information about Reg’s titles and career I will leave out these aspects. Instead, this will be a very personal look at the life of this great man, with examples of how he touched the lives of many people and influenced them in positive ways.
