VEGA, Alejandro "Alex" Born on June 4, 1998 earned his angel wings on Oct 11, 2014 in Sacramento, CA after a courageous battle against cancer. He is survived by his parents Hugo Vega and Maria Martinez; sisters Vanessa Vega and Emily Lopez. Alex was a devoted soccer player since the age of five. His dream was to become a professional soccer player. He was diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma in Oct 2013. He refused to let cancer keep him from always smiling, damper his great sense of humor or waiver from his faith. He never gave up fighting and was a true hero who inspired many. He will be greatly missed but not forgotten.
Arrangements under the direction of Nicoletti, Culjis & Herberger Funeral Home, Sacramento, CA.
