Alex's charisma was like no other. His smile could make a bad day good. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. Just one more reason to do everything in our power to fight this deadly disease. His new wife, family, and Max are in my prayers daily.

Alex was a blessing,a shinning light wherever he ventured. He enriched the lives of all those his path crossed. The loss of Alex is a void that cannot be filled. It was an honor and privilege to call Alex my friend. May God bless him and may he rest in peace.
