Dear Doug Shelly, Nick and Angus,

When I look out our window I still see Alex walking Angus or mowing your beautiful lawn. I also knew when Alex was coming home from work as I could hear the distinctive sound of his car.
Alex, you I had many talks together and I will miss you trying to keep me abreast of things happening in the digital world.
Alex, you are a great guy and this world doesn't deserve to loose you.
I wish I would have seen you move in to your apartment and heard more about your plans for the future.
We'll miss you assisting me in the Dunwoody Driving Club and helping me run down the vandals in the neighborhood.
Alex, we know you're at peace.
Love, The Wings.
