“I was so sorry to hear of Alex's passing. I met Alex many years ago at Accotink UU Church, which we both attended. He was an intelligent, interesting, curious and kind person, who shared humorous and humble stories. I know he loved his wife and family and he will be missed by those who knew him-- a true gentleman. Ann Smith”
