This is Reagan, Shannon's son (Tex's grandson).
I'm sorry to report that Tex passed away in his home in San Antonio at exactly 5pm Central time on Thursday. He was neither in pain nor discomfort at the end, and Shannon, Lola, and Mazie were at his side. Referring to the time of his passing, Mom told me, "tell his friends on the forum it was just like Tex
to go out with a "high 5!"

Pappy, to say you'll be missed doesn't even begin to describe it. You're a hero to all of us. A loving family and a grateful nation thanks you from the bottom of our hearts. Rest in your Father's arms, and well deserved.

Reagan
