I miss you so much but am so so happy you're up in heaven looking down and watching over all of your loved ones as you always did here in earth. I WILL be seeking you again brother. I love you.

Where have the years gone?
You moved to Northwood in the 7th Grade and that appeared to be the last time we would see each other. Sure I ran into you a couple times after that on occasion, but we never kept in touch. I'm gonna take responsibility for that. We were best friends (officially) for about 5 years. Being 3 streets away, we were together just about everyday, or at least every other. Whether it was playing sports, hanging out, or even getting into trouble, I could count on you (or vice versa) to be there, Remember the baseball team my dad put together? Nobody was messing with us! You were great to me, my family, and your surroundings. You never haad to try to take the spotlight from anyone, because you were the spotlight. (God knows nobody could mistake you for anybody else) You were all original, and i bet you stayed that way til the day you died. A hard headed kid that wouldn't change who you were to please anybody ;)
There are people who live to fight, and there are people who >>fight to live
And if you are still out there listening, I would like to say one more thing. Multi-million dollar resorts, palm trees and neon lights could NEVER replace the impact of our friendship. Nothing could.
PS: Ms. Anson, thank you for giving me a best friend. My condolences to you and your family.

Alec you will never know just how special you were to me. I loved it when I would walk into school or be at a school event, and you always made sure to say hello to me. I'll miss you, but I know you are in a much better place. God Bless.

Although I wasn't fortunate enough to know Alec, I learned quite a bit about him over the last week from a great aunt who obviously thought a great deal of him. I hope that you can all find strength and comfort in God's hands and allow Him to walk with you in this difficult time.

I am privileged to have had the opportunity to teach and coach Alec ("Double A"); he always had a natural way to bring many smiles to my face. He was a very special young man, who I will deeply miss. My prayers and sympathy go out to his family.

It hurts to know you're hurting,
You're so special in my heart,
The pain that you are feeling,
Is tearing me apart.
But know that love has a way,
Of easing all that's wrong,
Together we can make it,
If we hold on and be strong.
Know that you're not alone,
In all your adversity,
For by your side, through and through,
Is where I'll always be.

Dear Corey,
My entire family was truly blessed to have known,& befriended your two boys & you.
Alec's genuine smile and loving displays of affection towards us, will always be embedded in my heart & mind forever.
You should be commended for having raised such a special young man. The Lord truly must have something very special in mind for him in Heaven.
Alec, aka "Lefty", You will always be my #1 "lead-off hitter" in my book.
God Bless you all,

Alec was a very special person. He was full of life and loved to have fun! When he would come to our house, he would make a grand entrance with his silliness and whimiscal humor. He made our life brighter. He will be missed! (I love you Alec from Miss Jackson)

Dear Corrine(Corey),
Your courageous son will remain in our heart and memories. He became a part of our family since the first time he set foot in our home. You raised a charming young man who earned his wings to paradise and the day will arrive when you and Alec will be together again.
Ricardo cannot express his feelings at this time but you can see the sadness in his eyes. Alec became the best of his childhood friends.
Corey, please take care of yourself and your family. Anything you need? do not hesitate to ask.
May The Good Lord Take Care Of Those Left Behind.
With our sincere condolences,
Manuel, Sylvia, Ricardo, Cassandra, and Alex Zavala
