To whom this may concern. Although it has been a few years since I last saw, or spoke with Alex I still considered him to be one of my friends. Circumstances that were kinda in my control kept me away from my friends for years. i will miss him and at this time of mourning I look back very fondly on the days we spent together. I worked for the great Nils on a number of ocassions. I travelled with them to Halifax as there “roadie”. I recall going to his home on the South Shore and I still remember how I felt as though I had been in the presence of pure rock n’ roll when I saw the Nils at The Hotel drummond at one of their first shows. One of those Bambi Production shows. Those were the true independant music days. The days when we all put in and we all got something out of it. I am humbled by his passing and I know that he is in a better place now. God Bless All That Is Alex.

It’s heartwarming to read the kind words people are saying, and have always said, about Alex.

2 things - the pic you’ve got is of Carlos, not Alex, and Alex turned 39 on December 8, 2004.
