WOLCOTT -  Alexander Dillon, 18, passed away on June 1, 2024, in Wolcott, CT after a tragic car accident, a life that was just beginning, cut too short. Even though Alex was taken from us before his time, he lived his life to the fullest every single day. Alex loved playing basketball and spending time with his brother, Tony who was his best friend and was a big brother & role model to Brocc and Colton. He was always smiling, laughing, listening to music, and playing PlayStation video games "Fortnite & COD" with Tony, Brocc, & Cole, they called themselves the "Four Horsemen". 


Alex's sudden death was a shock to everyone who knew him. He was healthy, happy, and had his whole life ahead of him. His death is a reminder that life is precious and can be taken from us at any time. We should all cherish the moments we have with our loved ones, and never take them for granted.

Alex is survived by his Father Jamie Dillon and Girlfriend Marissa, Mother Amy Brunet, Brother's Anthony Dillon and Noah Sifuentes, Grandmother's Patrica Dillon who was his Mema and Sandra Culver, Uncle's Jeffery Dillon, Micheal Szyantar, and Joseph Culver, Aunt's Jenna Dillon his Titi and Heather Poinatle, Cousin who were like brothers Brocc and Colton Manchester, Alex's long time Girlfriend Ava DiMichele and many Aunts, Uncles, cousin and friends.  Alex is preceded by his two Grandfathers Richard Dillon and Harold "Rusty" Culver.  

A Celebration of Alex's Life will be held at a later date when Tony will be able to attend. The family will let everyone know the date, the family requests you share any memories and photos you have of Alex's on his memorial website. They will be read and cherished by those who loved him most. Thank you for keeping our family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
