To Donnie & Merrit ,My heart felt sympathies to you and your families. Tex was a special and unique Human Being. I had the priveledge to know Tex on an intimate level. The book of memories in our hearts and minds are for those to envy. I am sorry for our disconnect---but time and space have separated our physical beings---but never our spirits. God bless and keep you all. Slante' Haze
