After graduation...Rex went to college, where he graduated Sum Cumlaude (spelling?) joined the Navy and did a tour during peace time...much better than now. It was during this time that he met his wife, Marilyn. They married and had three children, two daughters and a son. They were resideing in Houston. All three of their children are now grown with children of their own. However, Rex never got to see any of his grandchildren as he passed away almost twenty years ago with cancer of pancreas and liver. His was a great loss and is still greatly missed, especially by Kay. Twins have a greater bond than most people.
Kay is my mom. She stayed in Pine Bluff and went to work at Simmons Bank. She met and married my father in 1958, who also had attended Pine Bluff HIgh. They resided in Pine Bluff until he graduated from Ark. A&M in Monticello. We moved to Dallas, in 1960. Dad taught several years for Dallas, then quit to work for Texas Instruments, where he retired from several years ago. Mom worked for Sears and Roebuck for many years. She is also retired. They had two children, my brother and myself. They have 4 grandchildren and are expecting their first great grandchild in late April.
It is always neat to hear from people that they went to school with. When we would visit in Pine Bluff, mom would take my brother and I through the old high school. I loved walking through the building. It had a lot of character, and personality. Of course, it is no longer standing and has been replaced by a school without personality, or character. I know that mom will ask what you have been doing wihen I tell her I recieved this from you, so, could you please tell a little about yourself.?
