None of you here knew Rex M. He never came to this site but we met Rex 3 years ago when Frank started his chemo treatments. Rex was an inspiration and an encouragement because he had been fighting the monster already for 4 years. Colorectal cancer stage 4 with mets to liver and lungs. He and his wife Pearl became friends and we always looked forward to seeing them and talking to them at chemo. Good people. Rex loved his family and especially his grandkids. Rex was 65 years old and fought a long and hard battle with cancer for 7 years. He passed on Saturday. He will be greatly missed by everyone who were blessed to know him. I needed someone to listen that would understand his courage and his strength. We ask that you lift up his family with positive thoughts and prayers.
Thanks for listening. Keep fighting. Love you all for being here!!!!!!!
Hugs
Anna
