Alexandra Paccone Obituary
Alex had a big, vibrant personality that she shared everywhere she went. She would light up any room with her beauty, energy and smile as she welcomed all to the activity, party and friendship. Much of Alex's life was defined by her Attention Deficit Disorder and the challenges that came with that. She knew the pain of exclusion, setting an example of inclusion for all of us to mirror. Alex loved adventures of all kinds, whether traveling to far off lands or exploring downtown spaces. Her athleticism and creativity were shared through her favorite hobbies, Ultimate Frisbee, painting, photography and music. While at Stephen F. Austin University, she found her home away from home with her ATO family, where love and acceptance abounded. She was drawn to and embraced animals for the same reason. Losing Alex leaves a hole in our hearts as many friends and family will miss her beyond measure.
In lieu of flowers, Alex's family requests that donations be made in her name to The Shelton School for expansion of the art program:

Jim and Anna, my heart is aching for you both. Know you both are in my thoughts and prayers. Hunter just loved Alex and wanted her to stay forever when she was up in NC (with Elise and Steve) for basketball camp at UNC. What a lovely young lady was what kept going through my mind when around Alex.

What a bright, young, beautiful girl! Alex was an integral part of our team this past summer. I enjoyed working with her, as I was her manager. She spoke lovingly about her family, her school and her photography. She asked if she could hang a picture she had taken in our bathroom at the store, saying she didn't like blank walls! I was so looking forward to seeing her again. Our sincerest condolences from the EBW team. Our hearts are so heavy.

I first met Alex at her christening and after that I had the chance to feed her a bottle. My next wonderful visit I came by myself and she woke me up in the morning and she smelled so fresh and clean. We got to talk and play until she had to be whisked away for school. Now she was all grown up but we talked together. She and I shared a sense of curiosity about the other... She is not gone to me because she is in my heart. Peace to you Alex and Anna and Jim someday. Herman and I love you.

I've only heard about Alex, never met her. I do know her Mother's good friend Desi, and I've known her grandmother Mary for many years. It is so sad to see so many so grief stricken. What a tragic loss. My heart goes out to all.

We were blessed to have Alex at Shelton for so many reasons. Her smile was always welcomed in my office and she always stopped by to say high or to just get mints. She was a lovely young lady and her memories will always be a part of our school and my life. My prayers are with everyone who had the honor to know her. Sincerely, Coach Chuck Locke
