ALEX G. RATHE

Dear Mary Kay and Jim and Meredith and Madison & family, Adam and I speak of Alex's untimely passing with much sadness throughout the year but especially at the anniversary of his wedding and then his passing 2 years later. It's unbelievable!!! The tears still come as it's so hard to fathom that he is gone from sight and so many other harsh realities of trying to understand why his life was taken when he had so much to live for.

I’m so very sorry to hear of Alex’s passing. I enjoyed having him stay with us as a young child when we lived in Oshkosh. He was such a little gentleman. I’m sure he grew into a kind man and will be greatly missed.

Your friends at Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass give our deepest condolences to Alex's family, his wife Meredith and daughter Madison. We did contribute to the Alex Memorial Fund. Thinking of you. Kindly, Amy Moorefield and the staff of Bergstrom-Mahler Museum.

I am so sorry for the loss your family is going through. I have known Alex since he was a toddler and I babysat for him. I'll never forget Alex and his favorite Puffalumps! He always had a wonderful smile to share with everyone! My heart breaks for all of you! I know Ross is with him and they both will watch over Madison.

Dear Mary Kay, Jim, Brody, Haley, and Meredith, our hearts are filled with immense sadness & sorrow that Alex has passed away. It´s unbelievable and we still can´t grasp the reality of it. We have known Alex since he was 7 years old. The first time I had the pleasure of meeting Alex was at St Elizabeth Seton school. When the 1st day of school was over, Adam introduced me to this handsome smiling lil boy named Alex & they developed an instantaneous bond of friendship that has lasted till death...

I worked with Alex at the Olive Garden and he very easily became my favorite person there. He was fun, bright, and so witty. I enjoyed eating dinner after our shifts together and miss all of the shenanigans we had in the wings/kitchen. He was such a wonderful soul. My prayers go out to his family - especially to his beautiful wife and baby girl. Rest Easy, Alex.

So sorry to hear of this....Alex taken way too young. My deepest sympathy to his family. I will always remember Alex for his sense of humor, zest for life, and kind way with others. He touched so many lives in positive ways. RIP

One of the last photos Alex sent me, he was always so proud of his cute little Madison.
