His Life Reginald "Pat Tee" Ingraham was born on November 11, 1958 to the union of Janice Ragas Ingraham and the late Joseph S. Ingraham, Sr. On Monday, November 2, 2015, Reginald entered in to eternal rest, to be with his heavenly father.

Reginald was a lifelong resident of Port Sulphur, Louisiana, where he worked, served his community and his church. He was a proud 4th Degree member of the Knights of Columbus, where he served as Chancellor of Council 8703.

Reggie was a great man, because he had such a big heart, he was a true friend to all. He was known as "the life of the party" and he greatly enjoyed fishing, family gatherings, boiling his "world famous" seafood and cheering on his beloved Cowboys (win, lose, or draw)!! He was also the number 1 ticket seller for all KC raffles!

He is preceded in death by his father, Joseph S. Ingraham, Sr. and his grandparents, Abraham & Annie Ingraham and Samuel & Mary Ragas.

He leaves to cherish his memory, his mother, Janice Ragas Ingraham; his children Joni Dorsey-Abadie (Jared) and Jarvis Dorsey; his grandchildren, Kadence, Krista, Kelsi, Kierstyn, Jared Jr., Jaylah, Jaeshawn and Jarvis Jr.; his siblings, Joseph, Jr. (Priscilla), Dwayne, Sr. (Valethia), Gregory, Sr. (Valerie), Bobby (Lynn), Darlene, Mary and Errica Ingraham and (adoptive family friend) Minister Elroy Mackey; his godparents, Augustine Ingraham and Joyce Parker and his godchildren, Gaylen Williamson, Romney Parker, Raquel Jones and Trina Williams.

He is also survived by a host of godchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and other relatives. As well as his devoted friends, Harold Lafrance, Jr., James Brown, Sr., Charles Williams, Sr., Carlton Williams, Brad Barthelemy, and Garland Ingraham.

“He has fought a good fight, finished his course, and can now receive his crown that is awaiting him in heaven. He made it in!

Stay in the Lord and you’ll see him again.”

Memories of Mom & Dad ‌

A Tribute to My Family ‌

"This was my temporary home It's not where I belonged.

Windows in rooms that I've passed through This was just a stop On the way to where I'm going I'm not afraid because I knew This was my Temporary Home."

Reggie

“I Felt An Angel Near Today” I felt an angel near today, Though one I could not see.

I felt an angel, oh so close, Sent to comfort me.

I felt an angel’s kiss, Soft upon my cheek, And oh, without a single word Of caring did it speak.

I felt an angel’s loving touch, Soft upon my heart, And with that touch, I felt the pain and hurt within depart.

I felt an angel’s tepid tears, Fall softly next to mine.

And knew that as those tears did dry A new day would be mine.

I felt an angel’s silken wings Enfold me with pure love.

And felt a strength within me grow, A strength sent from above.

I felt an angel, oh so close, Though one I could not see.

I felt an angel near today, Sent to comfort me.

God's Garden God saw you getting tired When a cure was not to be He wrapped his arms around you and whispered "Come to me" You didn't deserve what you went through So He gave you needed rest God's Garden must be beautiful He only takes The Best All Our Love...
