Our deepest sympathies to Jeff and the family. My Mother, Marcy Hale, spoke fondly of "Uncle Rex" and visited him several times when he lived in California. And we thank Uncle Rex for the freedoms we enjoy because of his lifetime of service to this country. God's grace and peace to the family.

Meeting and hearing Rex describe his experiences was fantastic as I was working on a World War II history project when we first met. Rex had a full and exciting life and our country is a better and safer place because of his service.##imported-begin##David Shelby##imported-end##

Where do old soldiers go
when they pass from here to there?
No more battles to fight, no more guns,
They go to God's tender loving care,
No more looking back and wondering
If they could have saved more men
They can lay it all down, they find peace
Where no wars are ever fought again.
Lord we ask you grant this weary one
A resting place, where no memories remain
Of all the brass medals and awards
Let him be simply Your Child again
In loving respect,
Your Great Niece##imported-begin##Brenda Hale##imported-end##
