Karen, Preston and Amber, I met Rex back in 1966 when his good friend and my husband Jim ran around together. I always liked Rex and he was such a neat guy to be around. He was with Jim and I alot as we dated and was such a 'little' gentleman at the time. I know Jim and Rex didn't really keep in touch but Jim talked about him all the time. He meant a lot to Jim. If there is anything we can do, don't hesitate to call. I know Jim would be honored!
Allow God to help in the healing...

In thinking of Rex’s passing I offer you the following:

What is Success?
