Love You Papa Alex
Your life with us was way to short but your memories will never fade. The love and memories you left behind makes us hurt and our hearts go numb. In your last days family and friends gather around reflecting the fun times we shared. The love you had for us was not always told to us but the unique way you displayed love will always be well known. Son(Garrett), Nanny(Yvonne), and Daddy please wipe the tears. God will intercept those tears with comfort. As we move on through this difficult time we need to look to the sky for papa for he is there with the angels. We will stand here united in grief for we all will miss him. So watch over us papa now that you are safe from pain and illness. We will comfort each other with kindness and love. We will all be with you heaven one day until then we will sleep with everlasting memories. Rest in peace papa. I love you.
Love P (Devin)

Uncle Alex:
My parents and I are deeply saddened by your sudden homegoing. You were an inspiration to our family and definitely an asset to my life. I will always remember the good times and laughs that we had working on the farm, talking at night and watching television. We also had a lot of laughs and great times as we traveled various places together on the highway (including the long road trip that we took last March). I also remember working with you some in your excavation business.
Although you were ill in your latter days, I had confidence that you would one day recover fully. You will always be respected for your devotion to your family and friends and to your community. As an uncle, you were the best! Although we will miss you, our lost is heaven’s gain.
And God shall wipe all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
~ Revelation 21:4 ~ KJV
