    Dear Rita, Alison & family, So many decades have passed since seeing you. I stumbled, literally, on Alex's obituary and felt blessed to have done so. Don died several years ago. I remember Alex as a warm hearted man and a pleasure to be around. I remember you coming to our home and Alison and Betsy playing - now all grown up with children of their own. You were blessed with a long marriage and intact / happy family. God Blessed You. May Alex and Don RIP until we all meet once again. Sincerely, Pat
