I´ve thought about you a lot lately.. although it´s been a few years since we talked I can´t fathom that when I searched your name to connect with you today, that I found this I´m devastated.I read through some of our old messages, I miss you so much. After I found out , I talked to you today, in the Meijer parking lot, I cried and I laughed remembering and reading our moments that I´ll cherish forever. I hope you heard me
Although our friendship was long distance (I´d always tell you Michigan isn´t that far ) via social media, and FaceTime.. I´ll never forget the laughs, the cries, the lectures. Watching and hearing you be such an amazing father to the boys and can´t forget Ghost enjoying you building things inside your home. It´s been 3 years but for me it´s only been a few hours. My heart is shattered as I try to piece this all together. I hope you know how loved you are "Indiana"

We are very sorry to read of Alex's passing. He was certainly a bright light in this world that was extinguished much, much too early. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May the Lord give you peace in His eternal grace.
Most sincerely,
Murray and Cindy Mendenhall

Mike and Donna,
I remember a time at Quabachi State Park at one of our band gatherings when a little Alex was sliding down the water slide. Both his parents were standing at the bottom of the slide to protect him. Unfortunately, when a child grows up we are not always there to protect him or her. I cried when I received the text this morning
that Alex had died. Kim and I are very sorry for your loss.
