I miss my father-law Alex. Yes, he was quite a character. Just wish that he had been around longer so that I could have gotten to know him better.

It is now the first of October, and we at Stoneridge Court just heard of the death of Alex. We all enjoyed and profited by his presence among us.
He will be missed.

I'm sorry to hear Al (Popoo) has pass away, He will be truely missed by my family and myself. He was my father for many years and helped mold me into the man I am today. Many times over the years I've called him to tell him Thank You for all he had done for me and to tell him how much I loved him. I'm looking forward to seeing him in heaven.

Popoo, as some of you know...was the best grandfather and only father figure in my life. I will always remember his songs, his humor, and the trips for orange icecream. I am grateful to have had him in my life.
His silly songs are being passed down to my little girl..as they will always be in my memories.
I like this poem he wrote. It helps.
End of the Game
Had another birthday, the Big Eight-four,
and got to wondering, how many more?
It occurred to me, it''s all a game
of repetitive seasons, much the same.
I am a player in the arena of life,
with moments of triumph, and others of strife.
Mortality is measured in hours, days, and years,
accompanied by joy and laughter, sadness and tears.
Looking back, the past has not been to bad,
with a loving family and many friends I had.
It does not matter what lies ahead,
I have nothing to fear, nothing to dread.
The Good Lord has guided me all along the way,
He will decide where and when, will be my last day.
A. L. Mangani
God Bless.

I was fortunate to have Al in my life as my step-father during my wild days. He was a great guy and wonderful to me, getting involved in my life and always lending a helping hand. I have fond memories of him helping me repair one of the first boats I ever owned - it was a project boat. He came over to my house and spent a few days helping me fix it up. We had a wonderful time, working, smiling, and laughing together on that boat. He was a pleasure to be around.

I have and always will consider "Popoo" a very important part of my family. He was my grandfather...if not by blood..by heart. He was my only father figure growing up..and for that I am grateful. My prayers are with his family at this time. His songs he sang to me as a little girl are being carried on to my little girl. I am hoping that he gets his wish of being reincarnated into a race horse. His sense of humor and his poetry help at this time for me. God Bless.

Alex participated in the Arthritis Aquatics class(es) and "Senior Scribbler's" writing class(es) I teach at Trillium Place. He was a "joy" to be around, and I loved hearing the stories he had written! In the Aquatics class, he gave one of our exercises a nickname, "kick butt", which I continue to use!
My prayers and sympathy are with Alex's family. I surely will miss him!

We will certainly miss Alex's smile and friendly disposition. He always was upbeat and loved to sing! We were blessed to have him be a part of our Trillium Place Family.

I am so blessed to be Alex Mangani's son-in-law. The time was too short. Your pain has ended. Rest in peace.
