https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/general/5534/cheers-to-a-true-swimming-legendI thought y&#39;all might like to see this. If you don&#39;t know who Tex is, think about him every time you do a flip turn. He was a great man, and if you ever saw him swim well into his 90&#39;s he was an inspiration to watch and know. www.swimmingworldmagazineen-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/72985?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 30 Aug 2007 07:27:38 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:687b05d7-019a-4b1b-97eb-7ee5380e2507Former MemberBurnet Texas is a fine small town and they host the Tex Robertson invitational high school meet every fall at their indoor pool.

I was just out of the army and far from home in Indiana. Tex&#39;s reply was WE NEEDED YOU FOR THE RELAY! He was a great guy, but my favorite coach there was the, then, 90 year old Professor of Greek who was the tennis coach. His name might have been Pinnick.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/72870?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 29 Aug 2007 11:44:02 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:1cea3578-d26f-4ff0-99d1-b952bfb1f19dandethanks for sharing this Tex was a remarkable person <a href="http://camplonghorn.com">http://camplonghorn.com</a> <a href="http://web.mac.com/texrobertson/Tex_Robertson/Obituary.html">web.mac.com/.../Obituary.html</a> ande Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2007 10:01:25 -0500 From: Ted Doyle would you mind contacting as many folks as possible who will not be in attendance (Rolland Baker, etc.)and solicit their stories about Tex; emails of these would be great and selective stories could be read (please print these all stories and tributes so they can be posted for everyone to read); * Spencer, please get this same request out to the network for folks to email you their stories and tributes; if you would please fwd them to me no later than Friday morning; * does anyone have email addresses for: Adolf Kiefer, Ralph Flanagan and Eddie Gilbert (Ed plans to be there Friday night).
