Michelle, Alexander, Hannah, and Jeff...
I am so saddened to hear that Alex has passed on. He was the type of friend that always exuded his own personal style. When I think of him, memories of his quiet but contemplative way shine through, his genuine smile and laugh, his love for dancing to Amazing House. Michelle, I remember when you two first fell in love during the time that we all worked together at Zias. I was so happy then for you guys and am so happy that you were able to share life together. I was also good friends with Jeff. Please let him know that I am thinking of him. To think, I only live 15 miles away from you guys in Galloway. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,

Michelle & family- I'm not sure if you remember me Michelle, but we worked together at Zia's many years ago. I read about Alex's passing on Facebook and just felt the need to let you know how deeply sorry I am. I remember those days when you and Alex first met and I've often wondered about the two of you over the years. I also have children named Alexander and Hannah- what a coincidence. I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss and that you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care~

Michelle, he's so young and handsome! You don't know me, but this really caught my attention when I saw his picture! I will be praying for you and your children. There are support groups available for you and the kids. Send me an email if you're interested. I lost my husband a year ago at the age of 56.
