Typical of so many musicians, Reg Benoit created a steady if unspectacular career. He did well enough to garner acclaim, although not enough to quit his day job. Then in 1998, Reg's world came to an abrupt halt. A serious spinal cord injury sustained at that day job forced him to pursue music full time and to fine tune his passion for life and people. The unexpected tragedy became a new direction in the service of others through music and a deeper understanding of how life works out. He has performed tirelessly to entertain seniors, the sick and in aid of an impressive list of fundraising projects large and small, public and personal. His music has benefited the St. John's Children's Hospital and Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto. he has devoted time and energy to native groups and when Canada's last surviving Father of Confederation, Joey Smallwood, ran into financial difficulties writing his history of Newfoundland, Reg was there to help. Along the way, Reg became a pastor in order to touch people in the darker corners where even music cannot reach. Reg Benoit is a symbol of those for whom music is not a road to riches, but a challenging path to the hearts of people.
