Rex lived in my area of Mission Viejo for many years.  I had not seen him for quite a while.

I am heart broken to hear of his death.  I do know he is with the Lord in heaven.  That is a blessing!!

I am so sad to hear of Rex's passing. Melody, I am glad to know that we will once again see him in heaven. May God continually comfort his family, and encourage them in this world.

I had moved from Kansas to Torrance in the spring of 1965.  I was in band and so was Rex.   He was my first car date!!  He was the president of the sophomore class and not only good looking but extremely nice.  I felt so lucky to have that date with him.   What a sweet person he was and will be remembered as.

I am devastated to learn of the loss of Rex McNay.  He was my first boyfriend (5th Grade!!), living three houses away on Halison Street.  He was my first kiss! Rex was a really great guy that had really great parents.  The world was a better place for having him in it. He will be missed.
