I am trying to work something out for tomorrow, but in the event I can't make it to the wake, I wanted to make sure I offered my condolences to the Wheeler family. I am greatful I got to go to school with him and got to go to war with him on the soccerfield every weekend. I will always consider him a friend and unfortunately we were just planning to get together to see Alex Jr. fight. He was a very proud father. Mr & Mrs Wheeler, Mike and little Alex, if you need anything, I'd love to be there in Alex's name. God bless your family through this troubling time.

As I sit here and ponder what to type, Words are not enough to express our loss. As I slaute you with this beer. May you be at Peace! You lived you life like many from UB with trials and tribulations. You made an impact on people for good reasons. You still live on within our hearts.I remember you Alex as a true friend. As I believe things happen for a reason.There's a better plan for you now. Alex- Please Take Hold of The Flame. Ride, to a place beyond our time
Reach, for the edges of your mind, and you are there
See, that the light will find it's way
Back to a place where it will stay, make it stay. Love and Peace Brother.

My dear, sweet friend Diane.....I cannot express how sad I feel for your loss. I will never forget Alex. I have such fond memories of him as a kid growing up on Herbert St. He always wore a smile, would go out of his way to be helpful and befriended my daughter Nicole through their similar circumsances. He was a good kid. My heart, thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Rest Peacefully Sweet Alex

We will miss you Alex. Even though it had been a few months since we last saw you, Greg and I would still always laugh about the time that you tripped over and broke our baby gate. We all had some good times together. We just cannot believe you are no longer here with us, but we want you to know that we will never forget all of the great times that we did get to spend with you. Hopefully, we will see you again someday when you hopefully open up the gates for us in heaven. Our hearts go out to your family. May God help to ease your family's pain during this tragic time. We are so sorry for their loss! Alex, you had a heart of gold, you were a good friend and you were a good father who cherished your son.That is how we will always remember you. You will be missed buddy. RIP

I cannot believe you are gone, I guess the Heavens above needed some more angels because that's what you were. I'm glad we got to reconnect and confirm how much we did mean to each other. I just wish we got to have that drink together we were supposed to. I will never forget your smile and your goodness. Rest in Peace Al, you will be missed. My thoughts, love and prayers go out to Alex Jr. and the rest of the the Wheeler family. May God give you strngth at this difficult time and always.
