Julie and Darren, So sorry to hear about Rex. He was such an inspiration to me growing up, know he will be greatly missed by you all. What a wonderful man, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your families. Deepest condolences, Tina

Remembering our Mothers who were life-long friends...so long old friend.

Sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers for each family !
