I just wanted to let you all know how sorry I am about the loss of Rex. I was so glad to know that he was close to my Granny Eunice Langston. She always told me about him checking on her and bringing her deer meat. I really appreciated the fact that he looked out for her. Sincerely, Yvonne

I am so sorry to hear of Rex’s passing. I met him a number of times while I was married to his cousin, Danny Williams. I remember him as a very nice man who might not speak much but when he did it was always positive. I’m sure there will be no shortage of good memories concerning him for all those that knew him.
