Rex. H. Canady, Jr., 78, of Lake Seminole, passed away Thursday, November 27, 2025.

Rex Hoyt Canady, Jr. was born November 2, 1947, in Dothan, AL, the son of Rex & Hazel Windsor Canady. He was a graduate of Dothan High School and proudly served his country in the United States Navy.

Memories of his high school football days carried right into the present. Rex and Diane enjoyed watching football together, which included only a little armchair coaching. Lake life proved to be just what Rex expected. He appreciated everything about “beautiful Lake Seminole” from the fishing & hunting to the spectacular sunsets.
