Farewell Rexie

Sorry to report, another sad day, our sweetest cat ever, Rexie passed away last night.  He was in his favorite spot, on my son Alex's lap, snuggled up as Alex was writing an English paper on his laptop.  It all happened so fast, and now he's just gone.  He really was the sweetest, most gentle cat we've ever had the pleasure to live with.
When he was a kitten he used to stand up on his hind legs and battle with his front paws, and my dinosaur crazed at the time son named him T. Rexie.   He had the most mellow personality of any cat I've ever seen, until he got pushed too far and then watch out, he was fierce.  One of his favorite places out in our yard was perched high up in one of the redwood trees so we'll be burying him under one of those.
We'll miss you forever Rexie.
