Regina was born March 10, 1950 in Des Moines Iowa. Regina moved to Omaha Nebraska then in 1965 to Galveston, Texas. To the envy of her friends Regina lived in the Historic Galvez Hotel where her father was the manager. Regina loved the Texas coast, the beach, fishing, swimming, and all things Galveston. She graduated from Ball High School and married Robert Anderson in 1970. They moved to Austin 1976. An insurance wizard Regina worked for the Independent Agents Association in Austin for over 28 years. Regina’s dream to return to the country was realized 15 years ago when she purchased Windy Hill Farm in Niederwald. Regina embraced all aspects of her new rural life, particularly the care of her many cats, dogs, chickens, goats and animals including her beloved horses. She was a cofounder of Bluebonnet Equine Humane Society in 2005 and served as a Director for 5 years, and continued her dedication and support for the organization’s mission to rescue, foster, and place horses in need. We will miss her resounding laugh and boundless energy.
Regina is survived by her daughter Courtney Anderson of Neiderwald, Courtney’s father Robert Anderson of Marble Falls, her brother Greg Abbott of San Antonio, cousins Mary Ann Newton of Winterset, Iowa, and Donna Devine of Denver Colorado, many loving friends, and her menagerie of cherished animals at Windy Hill.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Art and Freda Abbott.
