Reginald Lee Powell

With heartfelt sympathy, we announce the earthly transition of Reginald L. Powell, Jr., of Gadsden, who traded time for eternity on Thursday, June 5, 2024, at the age of 35.  We ask that you keep his family in your thoughts and prayers during this time.

Mr. Reginald “Debo” Lee Powell, Jr., was born on November 18, 1988, in Gadsden, AL to his loving parents, Cathy Maxwell-Thomas and Reginald Lee Powell, Sr.

He was baptized in Jesus name at an early age in Gadsden, AL. 
 
Debo was one of a kind and somebody to know. He was known for riding ATV’s, cracking jokes, hanging with his “crew” in Oakleigh Estates, and his “Big” head which was bigger than his body. The love he had for his children and family was priceless. Debo will be remembered by his personality and sense of humor.

He was preceded in death by his grandmothers, Irene Maxwell, and Annie Ruth Powell; grandfather, Joe Hill; aunts, Sallie Densmore, Barbara McMurray, and Carolyn Maxwell; uncles, George Maxwell, Joseph Maxwell, and Billy Moore, and special nephew, Xzavier Ruffin.
