Fill where you go with love and you know he’s right by your side.
Heartfelt condolences for you and your family. I wish you and your family the strength and courage needed to somehow find peace in the face of this tragic event.We have lost our beautiful 15yr old son Alexander.
On Monday, August 5, Alexander died in a swimming accident. He was away in Montana with a friend from school for his first big adventure independent from us, and was having an amazing time. For that we are so grateful.
Maria and I have just returned from Montana. We do not have any details about when we can organize a service, but will share them. For now, we are simply heartbroken and just trying to get from one minute to the next.
Alexander, we love you, we are so proud of who you have become. We miss you immensely and would give anything to have you back with us. You had so many adventures ahead of you, and we were looking forward to seeing you through them. We love you, our beautiful boy. We will always ALWAYS love you.
I have been reeling since we got the news. I know only a couple of you had met him but you all would have loved him. We were on the cusp of so many new things coming his way--Driving,High School,part time work etc etc. We were looking forward to many more adventures with the Mustangs and Bronco,Concerts and shows.
The orange cat passed this year as well
Expressing condolences in this situation is next to impossible, just know you have our support and love.
My Dad was an old school German-Austrian who grew up as a young teenager in WW2 Europe. He was about as unemotional as you could imagine. I was viiting him and my Mom when the Sherrif came to the house to let us know my oldest brother had passed away. My Dad still didn't really show emotion, but I heard him mumble under his breath that this was the worst day of his life. I have one child, and I don't know how I would handle this, or if I could handle this.
I also unexpectedly lost my wife just over a year and a half ago. I focused on what I had left to get me through the challenges, in my case it was my son, getting my literal and figurative house in order, and finally focusing on myself, both physically and mentally.

Thank you all for your support and kind words. I`m so sorry . I hope we can do right by Alexander and keep going forward.
I`ll go with the most recent--Saturday the 3rd we dropped him off at his buddies house, they were going to be away for a week in MT at buddies cabin. They stop in Spokane for lunch. Buddies dad commented that Alexander was looking him in the eye and having a conversation, Alexander then calls out his buddy for having his nose in his phone. Then they stop in Post Falls for fuel and Alexander then goes and strikes up a convo with a person in a Heritage just like ours and asks them if they take it out and get it dirty like we do. Buddies dad (and most adults) was impressed with Alexander for being able to do that all on his own.
