Alex A. Mickey

Dear Alex, On the eve of your birthday my heart is heavy. Our lives were tragically changed close to a year ago when we lost you & I would do anything to have the power to bring you back on earth with Ashlynn & all of us. You took a part of our family & our hearts, & most of Ashlynn´s, with you. I don´t have a garnished drink without thinking of you. Same when I get a fancy dessert & think of your articulate descriptions you so generously shared with us even though I drove you nuts asking...

Our sweet Alex is never far from my mind. I will always ask why. My Ashlynn is trying her best, but the hurt is so intense. I pray that Alex is happy and healthy and some day I will be lucky enough to spend time with him and talk about all the fun stuff. Always in my heart. Love, Shelby and Jack Sijan

Alex is the nephew everyone wants. Always sweet, kind caring and fun. Alex and my precious niece, Ashlynn, have been the perfect pair for so very long. Their love is so strong and natural. I truly believe they were made for each other. Alex will always walk beside Ashlynn, encouraging, encouraging and loving her. I have always smiled hearing him say simply, "Hi Shelby." I am forever grateful to have been lucky enough to have experienced Alex's sunshine in my life. I will miss him so very much.
