David Alexzander Sligh

Our beloved grandson, son, nephew, father, husband, cousin, uncle, and friend passed away on Monday, January 22, 2024, in a road rage incident. He is survived by his son, Seeley Sligh; his wife, Shannon Sligh; his mother, Michele Sligh; his grandparents, Dr. Betty and Dr. Mohammed Ahmed and Harvey and Carol Sligh; his aunt and uncle, Deborah and David Bouton; his cousins, Tiffany Bouton Lerret (Matthew), Jessica Bouton, Jacob Bouton (Maria), and Kimberlyn Bouton Anderson (Michael Paul); his nieces and nephews; and many extended family members and friends.

David (Alex) Sligh attended schools in Brevard and Orange County and graduated from Lincoln Academy with a high school diploma. He was a certified forklift operator. While he was in high school, he worked for Publix Supermarket part-time in Orlando and Titusville. He later entered the hospitality industry and worked for several food service companies in Titusville, Cocoa, and Merritt Island. He moved to Orlando and started with a temporary job service in 2023, and on January 22, 2024, while on his way to his first day as a permanent employee, he lost his life to senseless road rage. Alex loved his family and family gatherings, music, Earth Day concerts, car races, a good steak, expensive sneakers, and most of all spending time with Seeley.

Celebration of Life Private Services will be held Saturday, February 3rd, at Cocoa-Rockledge Garden Club, Rockledge, Florida.

He can truly say with Paul, "I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith". 2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV).
