My sincere condolences and heart felt loss to Pam, Sean and Peter. Rex return to His Lord is a reminder to us that we all one day will leave this abode and start a new journey to our Creator.

Rex was a humble and kind soul – he was an embodiment of what caring neighbours means - irrespective of religious boundaries or traditions. Rex touch many lives and my family is one such group and his lose will be felt for years to come. He will never be forgotten.
