I remember spending time with Rex in my youth, as I would go to the Caldwell home to visit with Chris. I would often see Rex, sitting at the counter reading the paper. I enjoyed visiting with Rex, and discussing the headlines. I had lots of good times at the Caldwell home. I am thankful that Rex accepted me into his home, and let Chris and his friends be kids. I won't forget the parties at Caldwell's. Godspeed, Rex. Hope to see you on the other side.
