Rex is survived by his children: Christy Peden, Jason Bethea, Rex Peden and son-in-law, Josh Stewart; his siblings; Bill Bethea, Tommy Bethea, Betty Bethea, Bobby Bethea, Ernest Bethea, Joe Bethea, Judy Finch and John Bethea; and his grandchildren; Makenzie Stewart, Sidney Stewart, Halie Stewart, Ashley Stewart, Khloe Belle Peden, Jaycie Peden and Elijah Peden.
Mr. Bethea was known as a good mechanic who loved his grandchildren. He loved being outside as reflected in his favorite hobbies: coon hunting and trading dogs. Rex was partial to his truck too. And it was always the cleanest vehicle around.
