Alex had a gift to always know how to make you laugh, he always knew just what to say, or what to withold from saying, lol. There was nothing better than starting my day after talking to him, he always had so much energy no matter what time of the day it was. He was funny, intelligent, loving, full of life, one of a kind, and the best brother I could ask for. It was a blessing to know that I had someone who matched my energy, he had my back just like I had his and he was on my side no matter the situation!! Not many people have been able to give me that ride or die, take a bullet, or bury a body feeling that Alex did. Loyalty is a big deal to me because of Alex. He reminded me of myself in so many different ways. He understood me in ways that a lot of people can’t. My moon, skies, and sunsets will always be about you. No one could ever fulfill the bond we had. (huge thank you for giving Olivia to me because she reminds me of you so much!) I hope somewhere in another universe we do all the things that we planned to do, the things we thought we had time to do. I would choose you to be my brother in every lifetime. And as an older brother, you’ve taught me so much, but you could’ve never prepared me for the time I wouldn’t have you here anymore. I miss your smile, I miss your loud-morning voice, your weird jokes, I just miss you so much. Until we meet again my brother. one love ❤️ Revelations 21:4

Tributes
There comes a time in life where you come across a person that is a deep breath personified. Someone who knows what you’re thinking simply by the look in your eyes. Someone you can laugh until you cry with. Someone you can pour your heart out to and you know they’ll hold it gently and without judgement. Someone who knows how to melt away your stress. Someone who challenges you yet handles you with care. Someone who reminds you of your strength at your weakest points and you believe them. Someone who celebrates you and sings your praises, even when you’re not around. Someone who softens your heart when things get tough, but would go to war for you in a heartbeat. Someone who you can share your stories with, deepening your connection with every page. Someone who would never allow you to settle because their faith in you is unwavering. Someone you feel you’ve known in a past life and that you’d find in every lifetime. Someone you can spend your entire life thanking and it would never be enough. Thank you for being my someone, my love My safe space in human form. If I could wish anything for anyone It would be to have someone like you. I love you in this life and I’ll love you in the next life too. I miss you my love and would give anything to be with you and see you one more time! Forever my husband and the love of my life, I’ll always be your Little Tootsie Roll! ♾️💙💙💙♾️
