Tex was a long-time member of the Randolph United Methodist Church, he held his faith close to his heart. His strong beliefs guided him through the ups and downs of life, providing comfort and strength not only to himself but also to those around him.

Gardening was another passion of his, as he nurtured plants and flowers that brought beauty to his home. He was also an outdoor enthusiast, enjoying activities such as hunting and fishing. Working on cars was another way he spent his time, often tinkering and fixing things to keep them running smoothly.
