Dear Moyra and family. I was very sad to see that Rex had passed away. I will always remember you both coming in to the Christchurch Town Hall and all the lovely licorice we all purchased from him. You both were so warm and friendly to our staff on the Ticketek Counter. My love and prayers are with you at this sad time. It's not easy but your friends and family will get you through. Rex will always be just around the corner. Talk to him if you need to. Remember the lovely times you had together. As I remember my lovely husband. He will only be a breath away. God's love and my prayers are with you at this time. Carole Newton formally Ticketek at the Town Hall. XXX

Rex will always be remembered for his positive and engaging personality. He was a valued member of the community trust with his insight into education here in South Canterbury. On a personal note I'll miss his chats about great spots to visit here in NZ and the laughter we shared.
