I was blessed to work with Tex for several years. He was a great mentor and teacher, working right beside you when necessary to show you the ropes. After Gemco closed, I would run into him occasionally and it was always a pleasure to speak with him. The world has lost a great man! My prayers are with his family. May God give you peace and comfort during this time.

Tex was the finest gentleman I ever met. He was a great mentor and taught me our business and how to manage people we work with.

Tex was a wonderful man, friend and boss. He taught me a lot about this business and always had great advise. He got me promoted a sent me to Houston well prepared for life. Thanks, Tex.

With our deepest sympathy for all of his family. I had the honor to have worked with him at Gemco as his pharmacy manager and will always remember his wonderful and funfill personality.
