I was very shocked and suddened to hear of Alexis' passing. I've been friends with Alexis for twenty years. We had many great times together playing basketball, going to the beach, going to Dodger games, Laker games and of course UCLA tennis matches. Alexis was always there for me as a friend and will definitely be missed. See you in heaven bro....Brad Tracy

I knew Alex as a Teke @ UCLA. We had some good times on the basketball court and in the kitchen razzing our cook at the time. We lost another brother (Rudy) last year so this is very sad news. I hope Alex's family find peace and know that he touched many lives in a positive way.

I'm sorry to hear that one of my UCLA brethren has fallen. Alex was a great athlete and fun-loving man as I knew him. May his family find peace even this hard time.

So sorry to hear of his passing. Didn't know he was ill. I just got the obituary this morning,Wednesday the 13th. I was a freind of Alexis's for many years from our days at Mid Valley. He was always crazy on the basetball court but off it he was a cool cat. I ran into him at the beach a few years back...he spotted me out of a big crowd. We talked a bit, hugged and said goodbye. Always smiling he was. Now he is blessed to be in a better place
