Dexter was born in Bethlehem, PA to Galaxy and the Late Leinda Rockmore, the obit reads. Dexter has been apart of the family since he was 9 weeks old. There was never EVER a day that he didn t do something that would bring a smile to my face and even make me laugh out loud. He always fell asleep on his back with all 4 legs up in the air. He loved to ride in the car, but hated the rain. He loved laying on top of the couch so he could look out the window and watch the guys across the street at the barber shop.
