Dear Robert & Liz...we were so sorry to hear about Alex. We understand he had been struggling and that his poor body just could not bear any more. Our love and thoughts are with you, Patrick and Paul at this most traumatic time. Losing a child is a pain that I could never image. A beautiful rainbow came into your lives but had to leave so soon. I hope you are able to cross the threshold of beginning to heal your heart soon knowing that Alex will never be forgotten. Give each other hugs from us. Love Nonie & Joe
