My friend Rex, our lives have been intertwined for 65 plus years….from Rex writing checks for me at Clarkes, to our softball with Bobby and the team from Tulsa Tiling…then when we started our married lives and family…..gee buddy, I am really missing you. Rex was instrumental in our 1951 CHS class reunions….oh!! what a great time we had…you were a great friend…like a brother…I'll miss you!!! Arlie Russell
Rex and I are lifelong friends growing up in the same neighborhood and attending Irving Elementary, Roosevelt Junior High and Central High Schools. He is more than a friend to me, he is a very special friend who in our later years got to renew our friendship at our Class of '51 reunions. Each of us were taking care of our mothers, mine living with me and he spending time with his mother. We got to have a few dinners together and talk about our mothers and families. Rex was so caring for everyone around him and did love his family and was so proud of each and everyone you. The last time I saw him was at Montreau with four other 'lifelong' friends and his smile greeted us and we had a few laughs together. His attitude rubbed off each of us!! We love him too!! He will be missed by all of us right along with each of you. I know he has a special place in Heaven.Helen Ann (Burton) Barnes [email protected]
We are so very sorry to hear about Rex. Such good memories as we were kids and our parents were such good friends. You are in our hearts and in our prayers.
Where to start with memories of Rex, there are so many wonderful ones. He was such a steady, rock solid friend and a wonderful leader for our class and our reunions. Fun loving, thougtful, dedicated, he personified all of those qualities. He will always be in my heart. What a wonderful picture, perfect. Love and prayers to his family, Marilyn Caldwell Bell
