We are forever grateful. Alex heart was so big he never hesitate to help and give his last. I could only Imagine the crown that God has placed on his head.

Condolences to all he was him I was stepfather and he took very good care of us and my mother I know we all as a big group different family members but we’re all related to him due to his very large personality and very friendly manner he had a lot of people in his family. He’s fine and able to rest and wait the resurrection that Jehovah promised all of us at Revelations 21 three and four. We all will miss him much love.
