Alex, You were our other son. We will never forget you and all the laughs you brought to our lives. Michael is going to miss his "big brother". Heaven has got a really special person now!! We love you!! Your family from Texas.

Alex will always be remembered with a smile.  He was a great man and a great father.  He touched our lives and the life of our son.  Our thoughts and prayers are with the Roche family.  You will be missed.

May the lord keep Alex's family and friends  in his care as they continue their journey without him.

Alex, the man who knew no strangers and could make anyone laugh.  You will be missed by so many.  You were a blessing to us that had the pleasure to know you.  My heart goes out to the Roche family, you are in our thoughts and prayers.  God Bless!

Alex, 
Attie and I want to thank you so much for your friendship and the countless laughs we shared.  You are a true beam of light and we will miss you terribly.  
The Bad Apples will play hard for you.  May the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand.

We are so sorry for your loss.  Alex was a great dad and coach on his son's Tball team.  He not ony helped his son to excel , but the other kids on the team as well. We will be forever greatful to have known him.  I pray the peace that surpasses all understanding be with his son, Alex, and his family now and throughout their lives as they remember him.

Alex-

Your father was a great dad to you. He was so proud to watch you on the ball field and gave you his all. He will always be with you in your heart and will watch over you for your life time. Know that he was proud of you...May God Bless you and your family...he may be gone today but will be with you for your lifetime.

I have lost one of the greatest friends I may have ever had the pleasure of knowing.  As a colleague, I mentored him, as a friend, I admired him, and in death, I will eternally be grateful for knowing him.  He set the precedent as a father, as a friend, and as a stranger. Rest in Peace Alex.

Alex,
   My brother, it is hard to say goodbye but I know that you are in the hands of the Heavenly Father now. Your family and friends will make sure little Alex is always surrounded by love and I know that you will guard him from up high. I will miss our laughs together but will remember them forever! Love ya bro!

There are no words than can describe the feeling of loss. Your Son, Brother, Father, Friend and wonderful person will be missed by all who came to know him. I had the pleasure of supervising Alex at AIMD Jacksonville.  He was a good hearted man, who made many people laugh.  We shared good times together on the Volleyball court.  He was an athelet from his heart in many sports.  His smile would light up the room.  May you find peace in knowing all the lives he touched and changed forever. Alex will be deeply missed by all. 
Words to ponder: "The only thing you take with you when you're gone is what you leave behind." ~John Allston~ 
May Alex fly high like an eagle...God grant his soul eternal rest. 
God Bless you all in your time of sorrow. 
Alex you will be sadly missed our friend...

Hey Alex, I havent seen you since Allstars this past year. Was hoping to chill again this year with you but I have learned you have taken the journey to be with our Heavenly Father. So I guess Ill have to wait to see you again when my time comes. I will miss the times we had at the ball field , laughing and busting on our lil guys when they make silly mistakes! :-) Lil Alex will be ok down here knowing you are still looking out for him from above. If there is anything I can do for him I WILL. Gonna miss you dude , BIG KennyB. 62

No words can say how sorry we are at this time. our hearts go out to Alex's family and espcially Little Alex. Watching Alex play on the field and seeing his face when his Dad was watching him and praising him was a great joy for him. we are so sorry for your loss and will keep your family in our prayers. Dial family.

Alex was one a kind and I am blessed to know him.  I will always remember him as a very loving Father.  I only knew him from the ball fields with little Alex, but his devotion to his son was an example that we all should follow.  I will miss him dearly.
