I was starting a new position at Philips back in 2016 and you were walking by my department, always greeting people, smiling to everyone. I was a new face in the block and you introduced yourself and ask me where l was from, and where l worked before. I told you l was from Guadalajara and had worked at Abbott, and we learned we had similarities and things in common. You welcomed me and your door was always open for anything personal or professional l may need. You always cared for everyone and you were equally appreciated  professionally and personally.  We will always remember you, and we’ll be happy to see you again at our Father’s house in heaven.

To Miriam & family,

I spent many weeks with Alex & his team over a 3-year period, traveling to the Philips Carlsbad site.  Alex always saw the positives at work with his infectious smile, and I appreciated his utmost professional manner & hospitality towards me.  And, he knew some great restaurants!

But even more important than work, Alex’s eyes would light up when he talked about his family.  He loved you, Miriam, was proud to talk about your family, your big gatherings, fun traditions - his Mom’s homemade tamales.

Rest well my friend, until we we meet again in Tir na Nog.

My brother in law Alex will be sorely missed and his memory will be etched in my heart forever.  He made me feel welcome to the family from the very start.  That goes to show, the kind of person he was:  kind, hospitable, adventurous, generous, witty, successful, a man with great family values, and the life of the party.  But how weird does this world work.  A lot of people don’t know, but I met Alex way before I had made my way into the family.  When I was 13, my sister and Alex had a mutual friend in College, and he being the generous person that he was, he offered her a ride home.  I remember this really tall guy coming over to shake my hand as I was watching TV.  Years later we were to become family.  Every time we came over to visit, he made us feel welcome.   We talked about music, movies, sports, work, kids...life.....he was a fountain of knowledge and had so much good advice to share.  I learned a lot from him, and we shared a lot of good laughs.  I had my own Tuesday’s with Morrie, but with Alex.  I will remember him for the great father he was, the great husband he was, the great son he was, and the great brother he was.  I love you my dear brother, Rest In Peace.  Side Story forever.  

Your Brother,
Carlos

Dear Alex
I had the pleasure of getting to know you in 2011 when you came to Denmark to assist on getting the business I worked for integrated into Philips Healthcare. 
I really enjoyed your good  humor, your high level of energy and your openness towards us crazy Danes. I still remember the time you joined me for playing basketball with my old boys team and we had a lot of fun. 
My thoughts go to your family who have suffered a great loss. 
You will be deeply missed. 


Dearest Family,
My deepest regrets are with you all during this time, please accept my condolences.

I was able to spend a couple of days in the San Diego area with Alex before he was diagnosed with this illness that eventually took him from us, and I mention this because it's helps me remember him and his life, in a positive manner.  

He was the Alex I had always known growing up, funny, smart, successful, and a complete family man with a zest for life.  It was so good to see him after many years apart and meet his beautiful family.  I'll tell you that there a few better men in this world today, and Alex sacrificed so much to spend every possible minute he was given, with family.  

Alex is not gone completely, he lives in our hearts and minds.   

Rest in peace Primo!

You were such a loved man, tio. Your passing will leave such a big void in all of our lives. You were always positive, never complained about anything, and had such a love for life. I could always go to you for anything... from advise on jobs, buying our first home (you told us to stay always from the fixer upper and we did because I knew to trust your advise on things like that!), to having you come over an be the 'Project Manager' when they were hanging my tv because I knew I could count on your attention to detail. You were the smartest man I have ever known. I hate that my kids won't be able to share in the fun adventures that my brothers and I got to share with you. Thanks for being such a great example for all of us and for being such a big part of our upbringing. My Nathan, will always be my "Nacho" because you gave him that nickname. Rest easy tio. We will love and miss you forever.

              Dear Alex 
A friend loveth at all times.
Proverbs XVii17
Emerson was quoted the only way to have a friend is to be a friend. 
Today we mourn his loss. It is huge and hard to comprehend. Alex lived and endured through prolonged suffering. He loved his family one and all. He filled the character of a Nobleman.
Farewell Dear Friend, 
Your Friend,

Dear Miriam,

Alex was such a wonderful person who I had the pleasure of working with as his HR Manager.  In March of 2018,  I was working with Alex on a Project and had the opportunity to fly out to Carlsbad for a 3 day meeting.  A nice memory I had with Alex is when we went out to eat at 333 Pacific,  which was right on the ocean.  He was a good friend as well as a colleague. I will miss him dearly.
 
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
Love
Carol



This is going to be different and difficult for all of us.  I’m going to share my thoughts and prayers with you and your family.  I pray for you and your family as you grieve over Alex.  I pray that God has accepted him and he is in a better place, free from the suffering that ended his life.  I remember hanging out around a fire after a Christmas party and I could tell now, Alex was savoring the moment, as we all should.  The time we spend together with family and friends is what we remember, reflect and treasure as we move through life.  Please accept this virtual hug and my heartfelt sympathy.  May God watch over you and your family through this difficult time.   Matt Perun

Alex,
It was such a pleasure working with you and getting to know you through the years.   You were such an integral part of our global team providing so much knowledge, experience and wisdom.  I learned much from you about business but even more about courage and what's most important in life.   You've been such an inspiration to so many of us my friend.

Take care and look forward to meeting you again someday on the other side.
Dan

I initially wrote part of this as a text to you when Ellen reached out to me.  You are one of my all-time favorite colleagues.  Fond memories of our trips to Boston, Germany, and Amsterdam.  You are bigger than life and you’re a role model for all of us husbands, brothers, sons and fathers.  Sandy and I will have a margarita this weekend.  We loved meeting you and Miriam for one in Old Town.  I enjoyed our time together in Seattle with your brother a couple years ago as well.  And the time you and I were searching Boston Irish Pubs for somebody showing the Canelo fight.  We never found one, but we sure stopped into several of them!  You and I were the West Coast guys.  We sure loved that role.  Even meetings at 5:30 a.m. for us while wondering if Dan owned a clock.  :) God speed my friend; I’ll see you the other side for a beverage and another laugh.

The Correa Family,

It was truly a pleasure working with Alex over the years. He will be deeply missed .  I so enjoyed his great big smile and his full of life personality.    When we got together for team meetings, he was such a joy to have in the meetings.  He loved having snacks that I would bring just for him.  I am sharing some team pictures that I found to share.  Please take care and if you need anything please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
