I knew Alex for almost 30 years as my sister Carol's friend (& ex-boyfriend). He was a talented guitarist and kind man. He was a very private person and let very few people get close to him. I know he loved my sister and was always there to help her when she needed something. I know he is now with his dear mother and the angels and watching over us all.

I knew Sandor when I was a teenager. I met him through a very good friend of mine. I will always remember him as a kind and gifted person. Condolences to his family.

I met Sandor when I was 14 years old back in 1974 and dated him for 8 years. He was a special guy. He did love the martial arts and music. I have many fond memories of him. His family was like my family for many years. So sorry to hear about his passing.

His child hood band opened for the Mama's and the Papas when he was just 9 or 10 years old! He could play any song by ear, read music, excelled at martial arts, and his trade of...
