You may not be able to remove a member of a text group, if anyone in the group is Android as opposed to iMessage (iOS). Those messages are handled via your carrier either SMS or MMS, and they don't give you the option to remove people. If they are ALL iOS (iPhone) users, the related article link at the top of this page explains how to add or remove people.

Yes, you are exactly right. The third contact is not an iPhone user, so I don’t get the option.

Thank you so much for your fast response!

I’ll delete the the group and then recreate the 2contact group. I’ll probably loose the old messages but thanks ok?

Thanks again.
