My condolences to Dexters family. He was an amazing man. It was my honor to call him my best friend for over thirty years. Our love of family, horses , dogs , and cars gave us thirty years of stories to swap . Sometimes as we got older … a few repeats . I’ll miss his knowledge , his humor and his friendship. We don’t meet many people in this life that you can trust with everything , but he was a true friend and an amazing soul . I will miss him greatly. It was an honor my friend. ….
Dexter was quite a guy, always dapper even when seeing him wear blue jeans as well as impeccable when in suit. I first met Dexter, I was co owner of a mens store, while he was finishing law school. During that time he would visit the store, with some other students wishing they could buy what they saw. Well, after starting his practice he started buying from mystore what he had wished for in those law school days. So personable and always had a story.

Went to Henderson Schools with Dexter, remember him fondly.
My deepest condolences to the family. I was a legal assistant in his office for many years and it was certainly interesting as I learned a lot, not just about property tax law but bankruptcy law as well and corporate structuring. I also heard stories of vintage cars and trucks and cattle, as well as North Carolina BBQ although he grew up in Henderson, TX and his staff cheered him on when he wanted to act in movies. That was a great adventure when he was an extra in a couple of movies. Even when he retired, he would ask about what is going on here and usually when he got to thinking when he was out on the tractor mowing.
