As my friend, Rex's daughter Stacy continues to be a guiding force touching other's lives through friendship, dedication, hard work and loyalty we have evidence that Rex's legacy lives on through his children who spread his values throughout the nation.   My deepest prayers are with the entire family.   Stacy & Marcy if you need anything, don't hesitate to visit!

This note is for all of you as my thoughts and prayers are with you in the sorrow that you feel.  I know that you all have great memories of Rex and as I think of him I will always remember a strong Uncle with a presence that commanded respect. I remember him as bigger than life, gentle with children as he played and teased them, loving to all who hurt yet willing to always stand his ground. He was such a wonderful man who loved his family, his livestock and took care of business. Rex worked hard and played hard and always did it in the right order.  I'll never forget him calling me by the nickname he bestowed upon me as a young boy, STRINGBEAN, I can hear him saying it now as well as the things that he taught me: how to milk a cow, how to fix a fence, how to take down a calf heat up the iron and put the brand on with the least amount of suffering and so much more. He was a good friend and the best of Uncles. I just wanted you to know that all of us Hawley's will miss him dearly and remember him for the great man that he was. My sympathy goes out to you for our loss in his passing.

Thanks for sharing the video with our family.  It brought back so many fun memories of growing up and visiting the ranch back in 60s and 70s.  When our children met Rex two years ago they referred to him as Grandpa Rex.  They loved him instantly.  He had that kind of effect on everyone he met young and old.  God bless you all.  The Hawleys

Jeanne and family:
I had registered a few days ago, but do not see my entry, so I'm resending to make sure you know how much I wish we could be there to share all the great Rex stories and to remember a great guy.  Going home just won't be the same without Rex being there with his great laugh and sense of humor.  He always managed to get a hug and kiss from me whenever I saw him.  He left a great legacy in a great family.
Love, Kara

Dear Jeanne and family,
Being new in the Milesville area when I married Tom, Rex and Jeanne made me feel welcome right away.  I will remember the branding, feeds and get togethers.  Rex had a contagious smile that made you smile also, along with his hugs.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all.  May you find peace as days go by.

I remember as a girl, loving to get to go to the neighbors to "play".  The Radway house was always fun, unless Jeanne was giving out shots!  Over the years I would see Tom and Marie, Stacy, Mark and Judith, and of course, whoever was at the wrestling meets!  Anytime I ran into a Radway "kid", they always had a hug, story, and the warmest smile and laughter....truly characteristic of their parents. Please know that Jeff and I are thinking of you all and ask that God gives you strength for the coming days and peace as you accept your incredible loss.

Jean and family
I'm sorry to hear of your loss, Rex was someone that I loved to run into at T-34 and around at local events, he always took the time to see what I had been up to share what he had been up too. It always meant a lot to me.  I regret not being able to attend the funeral, (I won't be moving back to the States until next week) My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. My grandpa Ike always said" Rex is a great guy". - I'll miss seeing his friendly face, Amanda

P.O. Box 141 Philip, South Dakota

Our deepest sympathy to all of you!! So hard and sad when you lose a loved one. I will always treasure the times I shared with Rex at branding season when he was in his kidding moods. He always had a hug to go along with his kind teasing and wrestling with me. I have thought of him as a caring and thoughtful friend with that mischievous trait. You had to watch your p's and q's around Uncle Pug and Rex. When they were together, they were quite a pair. What memories!!! There are so many I will never forget. They will be with me forever. Country living agreed with him well and I was honored to know your family.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you!!! Tears will be shared!! He was such a great person!!!! Joan

You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this time of grief.  Rex was a great man and I have many fond memories of him. It didn't matter if we were in the wheat field, working cattle, playing cards at the kitchen table, or "relaxing" at the family reunion. He always had that devilish grin and love for life, especially family. He will be sorely missed by all of the family and neighbors of the Philip and Milesville communities.

Karen just called and sorry to hear about Rex. We will be watching for when the services are. I called the Custer relatives to let them know. It is hard to let them go but he is in peace now.
