I invited Rex to do a show at Dutton Adult Day Health Program in Wakefield, MA. I was, of course, a big fan since1950's. I loved that Guy! See you when we meet in the sky on resurrection day. Rest In Peace. Steve Brennan,RN

I remember visiting Rex Trailer's home when he lived on Good Intent Rd., Deptford, NJ. I was a school mate/friend with his niece, Lorene, who had a birthday party at the ranch. I remember we all got "silver bullets"! We watched his show and enjoyed it immensely.

All my family loved Rex. We watched every show. I got to meet Rex at the old Bradlee's Dept Store at White City in Shrewsbury back in the 60's. Now I'm in my 60s but still remember looking forward to watching Rex again. I guess now I'm looking forward to meeting Rex again, in Heaven. He was a kind gentle guy that loved kids, and kids loved him too. Too bad there are not more people like him. Sorry for your loss, it's our loss too. George Corazzini, Minot, ND.

Rex Trailer is,was,as well as always will be the most personable person who's ever walked on this earth.
I'm a die-hard fan of his,As his Daughter Jillian described me, and Rex even used to drop into the aqueduct of my neighborhood via his helicopter to visit Sid Pike the then Manager of WBZ-TV-4 in Boston,MA.One time Rex was even a guest of Sid's Daughter's at her Bas-mitz-vah.
I even covered these bases with Rex at The Joe Val Blue Grass Festival on June 21,1998 and 21 years...
