Reg Summers-Gill first came to Lloydminster in 1947 and joined Husky Oil as an accounting clerk after a wartime stint in the navy and two years working at the Bank of Commerce.

After two years in Husky's Calgary office, Summers-Gill transferred back to Lloydminster to head a payroll/personnel branch with offices over the old TD Bank.   Then it was off to Calgary in 1954 for nine more years.  Upon returning to Lloydminster, Summers-Gill too charge of refinery administration under Leo Cavanagh.   He retired from Husky in June 1985 and then devoted his time to community activities, including serving as an alderman for the city of Lloydminster.

When honoured at the Oilmen's Bonspiel, Reg recalled achieving a goal most skips only dream about.  In 1970, curling with Frank Shepherd, at third, Gord Lider, at second, and Vic Juba at lead, he laid an eight ender.
