Recently, Rex graciously helped me compile our family history and stories by sharing memories of his childhood. I appreciate his keen memory describing his boyhood life living with his grandmother in Kentucky. He left a treasured gift to me and all my children that only he was able to give. He had a unique way of describing events with humor and would let me know if I had already asked a question. I wish I could have spent more time with him.

Rex was a wonderful teacher and mentor. His patience was at times overwhelming, for which I am most grateful. A true gentleman and a pleasure to know and to work with.
Rest in peace, my friend.

Rex and I went down the same path for all of our years at Maas Bros. The finest kind of friend and associate. Most honest and trusted friend in business, morals, and life. Rest easy Rex, see you soon. Harry.
Your family will have great memories. May God bless and protect.
