ROBERT ALEXANDER Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sterling & Smith Funeral Directors Inc. - Tulare on Sep. 2, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Robert Lee Alexander Sr was born on September 12th in 1954 to Christine Smith and Willinton Carter in Tulare, California. Being the youngest of eight didn't stop him from being spontaneous and adventurous. Growing up he lived to the fullest, dedicating most of his time to school, where he then graduated from Tulare Union High School.

After high school he joined the military where he spent about seven years in the army.

During his years of service he fathered his two oldest by making sure they were taken care of. After being discharged in 1981, he moved back to Tulare, Ca. Welcoming two more children once he moved back, he continued to enjoy life leading up to him meeting the love of his life.

In 1989, he and Sandra Eastland became "Two peas in a pod" starting their union and welcoming their last baby together. Soon after they decided to make their union last forever and got married in Reno, Nevada. December 31st, 1995 sealed the deal on a long-lasting love between the two. Merging their families into one, they created a home full of love for all of their children.

Robert was a man of many hobbies ranging from; working on random projects

around the house to performing songs for his family he learned at school. "It's not unusual" by Tom Jones has been a fun filled memory for some time now. He had a huge love for gambling, lottery tickets, as well as watching soap operas, scary movies, and old western films. While attending COS he studied Liberal Arts. Taking classes like Theatre, and art helped him express his joy for everything fun and creative. Always laidback and chilling in his free time he made peace with his outdoor "gardening".

Robert has created a life for himself and his family by being there for the ones he loves. If he wasn't at the gym punching the punching bag, or tending to his farm full of chicken's, turkey's, and dog's in the backyard. He was at church with his wife learning the word of the Lord. Never missing a beat, he always made sure to take care of his wife to the fullest. Robert Lee Alexander Sr. will be truly missed by all of those who love and know of him.

He is survived by: His wife; Sandra Alexander. His children; Robert Alexander Jr.,

Janet Alexander, Tedra Dennis (Justin Dennis St), Taurean Alexander, and RosylnnDennis (Timothy Dennis).
