I probably haven't seen Alex since high school, but we were in school together for 12 years at PG. I was always amazed at Alex's incredible talents as an artist and he was always the nicest person in the world! If I may speak for the whole PG class of 1982, Alex will be sorely missed by us all and his family are in all our thoughts and prayers.

I'm a neighbor - Bruce lived a few flights up from me. He always had a friendly greeting and a big smile. Sorry to see him go.
