Alex Suarez, 72, of Miami, Florida, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on June 25, 2026. Born on May 26, 1954, Alex’s life was marked by steady devotion to family, an honest and loyal spirit, and a resilience that carried him through each season with quiet strength. He will be remembered as a beloved presence kind-hearted, generous, and unwavering in the care he showed to those around him.
At the age of 14, Alex left Cuba, a defining passage that reflected both endurance and resolve. In the years that followed, he built a life shaped by hard work and integrity values he lived rather than merely spoke, and which became a lasting example to all who knew him.
For 46 years, Alex was devoted in marriage to his wife, Maria. Together they shared a life grounded in loyalty, love, and steadfast partnership. He was the proud father of Alex (Abby) and Alyssa (Ceasar), and a cherished grandfather "Papa" to Ava , Daniel , Madelyn , Claire and Charlie .
Alex’s love of baseball was a constant joy, and he found deep purpose in developing young men in the game. With patience and a giving heart, he offered more than instruction he offered time, encouragement, and the kind of steady guidance that helps others grow in confidence and character.
