Alexander Pompey, AP, Apple Pie, Xander fell asleep, on Thursday, July 2025, at his home. He was 75 years old. Alexander was born on January 31, 1950, to Otis Sr. & Hattie Rose (Commy) Pompey, in Florence, South Carolina.
He attended Johnson High School in Timmonsville, South Carolina. As a senior in high school he was a School Bus Driver which made him responsible for picking up children for school, as well as taking them back home. After graduating from high school in June of 1968, Alexander attended the Florence-Darlington Technical College in South Carolina. While there, he earned his Professional Certification in Welding.

Alexander loved fishing, repairing cars, singing, dancing, watching The Three Stooges and all sports. Walking was one of his great loves - he walked up to 5 miles every day!
He leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Patricia A. Pompey; children, Sharon T. Green, Alex P. Pompey (DeShe') and Isaiah E. Miller; his grandchildren, Andre C. Green, Aaron M. Green and Xea M.
