Alex J. Destino

I drove a truck & delivered fish to the West Coast for 'Sea Cold' in Gloucheaster. Destino's was a favorite stop when in that 'fair' city' Alex was always there with a smile ready to serve the customer. ALEX----Gone, but 'certainly' not forgotten!!!

John, Jim and Tucker,

Please accept our deepest sympathies. I just recently heard of your Dad's passing. I have fond memories of joining Bass Rocks and him being one of the first members I met and one of the friendliest. I'll remember him proudly telling me "we Destinos can putt." He obviously was right.

To my dear cousins,
I can only trust Uncle Alex is reunited with his wife and daughter and mother and father, and brothers and sisters who has gone before him, in a perfect place of peace love and everlasting wisdom, continuing to bring a laugh to all he meets. My heart will always remember the delight he brought to my life as a child. As as adult, when I visited over the years I always looked forward to seeing your cute faces, plus a tuna sub with lots of pickles for lunch! Destino's...

Dear Destino family sorry about the passing of uncle Alex. I think of him all the time and he will be with me forever. I have many great memories of going to Destino's during my younger years and all of us being together at Thanksgiving and watching football at the house. God Bless the Destino family.

Mark, I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. I recently loss my Dad and know what you are now feeling. But we can take comfort in our memories and it sounds like you father has provided many many of them. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I went in to Destinos on Tuesday for lunch and was saddened by the sign on the door. My dad Gordon and Alex were good friends. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Destino Family..

To the Destino Family:

So sorry to hear of your loss. Deepest sympathies.

To John, Marilyn, Jim, Mark and Sandy, your families, and particularly all his grandchildren....when the pain begins to subside -- and it will -- what will remain are individual and shared memories that each of you have from a lifetime. Despite a person's deeds or contributions, those warm special and personal memories, your memories, are what people mean when they talk about a legacy, and are what I truly wish for each of you.

Warmly,
Stew

I have very fond memories of spending time at the Destino home as a child, special memories of "school days" at St. Mel's with Marilyn, Jimmy, Mark and Tucker. Those childhood memories last a lifetime. I am so very sorry to hear about your fathers passing. Alex Destino is a Gloucester icon. I hope your happy memories provide you all with comfort during this most difficult time. My deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers are with you all.
