About Rex : this is my father. I loved him very much. He was 6'2" blonde hair construction guy run in construction companies life of the party very outgoing very funny very loving very real very to the point could be harsh. He was a Christian man was not a Catholic baptized, angry bull man. He was a great influence to many men he sang he played the drums he introduce singing to me got me my first amp and microphone system. I think I might’ve been four. I’ve been singing ever since he was married to my mom almost 50 years. He had three children. His first daughter passed away from SIDS. His father died when he was nine from a construction accident. His mother was absent most the time an alcoholic, the majority of his childhood he was left alone a lot to deal with life on his own as a young child he raised chickens and pigs and turkeys. He got me a horse named lunar that I rode like the wind and when I got my car off, I went with the car and he would then pick up the slack with riding lunar, and he enjoyed him till he was gone. I’m not sure if he was a happy man. I think he was a happy man, but he struggled with internal thinking mental health I’m sure. more... less...
