I always knew that Rex and Millie had a love like no other. Not only for each other but for their children and friends. Even though I haven't seen you in years, I will always remember living in MOST of your rentals in my younger years. Rex was a lovely, gentle man. Love to all the family and God Bless you Millie and children

To the family of Rex Moravec, Rex was a loyal, compassionate, friend. He allowed me to trail behind him through the mountains of Northern California, miles of challenging, often cross country travel. The conversations we shared took many directions, and these times were always for me an "educational experience". He was a Renaissance Man, and my memories of him will be with me always. My prayers go out to his family for your loss of this very special man; friend, husband, father and grand-father. Scott Hepburn, Redding
