Alexander Halsey Obituary
Forked River - Alexander "Alex" Halsey, 45, of Forked River, NJ passed away on June 28, 2020 doing the thing he loved the most, riding his Harley Road Glide with his brothers. Born in Elizabeth, NJ, Alex spent his life helping others. As a former officer and member of the Lacey Elks Lodge, Alex touched many lives with his activities and fundraising. Alex was involved with numerous charitable organizations; special to his heart was acting as an escort for NJ Run For The Fallen.
To be loved by him was to know you could always count on him for the good times but more importantly the tough times. A friend to all, Alex lived HARD, but LOVED Harder. Alex was known for his infamous nipple pics on other people's phones, a frequenter of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, photographing all the food porn he ate, and hilarious memes. Alex loved to find the windiest, twistiest roads to enjoy with his wife, brothers and friends. He livened every room with his presence. Always recognized, not only because of height, but because of his loud contagious belly laugh and mischievous, yet kind eyes. Alex loved fishing almost as much as he loved his fishing buddies. Spending time on the water was as enjoyable as his time riding the road with his beloved brothers. He was larger than life, with a presence known world-wide. He will greatly be missed. He loved his Giants as much and as he hated the Dallas Cowboys, FORDs and seafood.
He joins his loving grandparents, Mery and Jose Gomez, and leaves behind the love of his life Michelle Heller and his two beloved daughters Skylar and Kylie. His mother, Denise Gomez, sisters Vanessa Rivera, Maria Matos, Katty Chois, Joanna Chois Seipel (Brad) and Erika Chois Zuluaga (Juan) and brother Jimmy Alvarez. Also, his uncle/godfather Gustavo Gomez, uncle Martin Gomez, aunt Evelyn Gomez and many, many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended family.
We all wish Alex was making one of his funny or offensive Facebook posts, maybe not the kind that got him in Facebook jail, but the kind that had us laughing or at least rolling our eyes. The hole he leaves in indescribable but we know that he is now riding hard and looking out for all of us. Until we meet again, throttle hand up!

Alex I'm lost for words, I can't believe this is real. The times we spent together, prior to my moving to Florida you always made me laugh, such a great quality man.
To Michelle, Kids, Family, Brotherhood, Friends. I send my prayers to you all, and my deepest sympathy its devastating.
I'm sorry I couldn't make the Service, I live in Florida now, my business been shut down 3 months, and I was robbed of $1800.00 dollars 2 weeks ago. I just couldn't afford to come. I feel guilty, but no way I could've made it.
Alex ride in the sky, I'll be riding with you, soon as god says it's my time.
Rest Peacefully & Easy

My father was his best friend ever since they were little kids, and he is completely shocked by the passing of such a wonderful, courageous, funny, kindhearted man. I have known Alex since I was little as well, and he had always brought a smile upon my face, and had never failed to make me laugh. We have lost one of the greatest people, and we will never forget this loss. Thank you Alex, for being a friend to my entire family, and being the best fishing buddy weve ever had. Love always.

Possibly the kindest, most pure-hearted, honest and funniest people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I will miss you, Alex. Ride on, my friend. Until we meet again...

Alex was a true friend to everyone. He was bigger then life but with a heart that matched his personality. I have known Alex through the Elks as a fellow officer and then my inner guard my year as Exalted Ruler. To me Alex was always there for me, no matter what I need he would just say yes. I enjoyed fishing at IBSP with Alex, Michelle, and Skylar when she wasnt sleeping in the truck. Alex you are truly going to be missed my friend, there will never be another Alex Halsey. Ride hard my friend till we meet again.
