I send my condolence to his wife and family. He was the best neighbor a person could ever have. I feel I was blessed to know him and his wife and will miss seeing him.

Sharon, Lisa and Scott--I am so sorry to hear about Tex's passing. There is no question that he was one of my favorite people ever, and the best man I ever dealt with in all of my years of sales. He was a wonderful friend, mentor and man. I will miss him terribly. Prayers for all of you. I am out of town and unfortunately will be unable to attend this weekend. He loved all of you with everything he had.
