Alexander J. Nappo

"Before someone's tomorrow has been taken away, cherish those you love and
appreciate them today."


Love you and miss you. In Colorado this week and drove past Mt. Evans 4 times up to vail and back twice, and thought of you all of those times.

Alex:

Another year has gone by since you left us. We still work on our labyrinth dedicated to your short, but significant life.

I walked it yesterday on the third anniversary of your death and said a Rosary in your honor.

We love you.

Alex,

my kids often ask about you - wondering "where" you are....
The best explanation I give is "Alex is wherever you feel him". Brett sees you in the clouds, Nick believes you are with him when he skates! I think both are true.

You are still very missed. My thoughts of you are brought vividly to mind when I see my boys playing around. It empowers me to love them even more.

Miss you and love you as much as always,

Aunt Bernie

It has been three years today since you were taken from us and even though they say time heals, we haven't forgotten. We all think of you often. I think of you and your grandpa Nappo all the time,especially at night when I am saying my bedtime prayers. Just wanted you to know you will always live in our hearts and minds.

Love Always,
Aunt Janice

Hi sweetheart

It has been a year since the last entry in this book. Not because we all still don't think of you and miss you so much. But rather you would be proud of us because we are slowly learning to live FROM you, not WITHOUT you.

Love,

Auntie M

Alex,

You are a wonderful person who has a wonderful family. The "July hike 2007" was a time for tears, but also a time for a lot of laughter and adventure as it should be.

You will always be missed and never ever forgotten. I can't even describe the experience of you being "set free" in Colorado..

The best remedy for me and my family is to live life with some zest and adventure; it that means climbing mountains, plummeting down water slides (thanks Carmen and Ria),...

Hey buddy!

Its been awhile. I finally am able to write the note I've been waiting to write for many months. Some of your ashes are now in the Colorado Mountains. On top of Mt. Evans no less, where everyone in all of the front range can see you every day. Just the way you'd like it.

To say I miss you is almost silly. You are always with me and you are my inspiration to run harder, ski harder, hike longer, bike stronger.

Love, auntie M

Alex, I know people may think it is strange to still be writing here when it will be going on 2 yrs now that you have been gone,but somehow it still helps. I still think of you every day and miss you so much. I think your death was a defining moment in my life, it has changed me in many ways.Your dad's birthday is coming up in a few days and I know it is going to be a hard day for him and that saddens me. I wish you could come to your parents and let them know you are ok. Your death has...

Merry Christmas, Alex (I know, it's early but thought of you a lot today). Mason wears one of your hoodies all the time - makes him feel that you are close by. I have no doubt you are close to us all and watching over us. We all miss you.
Love -
Aunt Bridget
