Lisa and family, I have worked with Alex since the first day he started here in Poughkeepsie, he was a proud man when it cam to his wife and kids. He never could say enough about his Dad and Mom as well as his brothers. Had some good times kidding around with Alex and will miss him.

Dear Christine, John and family:
praying for all of you at this time. May he always walk in green fields surrounded by the angels; may the sky be a peerless blue and may he drink sweet water from a crystal flowing spring; and may God Himself hold you close, and wipe away your every tear.
with loving thoughts,
Francine, Michael and Susan Quinn
