My sincerest condolences to Alex’s family. I had the privilege of teaching Language Arts to Alex and his brothers at Lassen. I am so fortunate to have known such amazing young men. Alex always had on a smile and was willing to joke with me and his friends. I will always remember his fun personality and the kindness he had toward others. I am so sorry his life was cut short. 
He will be remembered.

Alex, 
I've known your for the few years you were at Chavez. We met due to your attendance but little by little it no longer was to talk about your attendance but more just to chit chat and check in. You always had a good energy and the way you matured from sophomore year to the young man you were your senior year was amazing. I really enjoyed seeing you grow and I could tell you really wanted to get it together and finish high school. I remember the last time we talked you told me, Ms. I'm moving to Linda Abril, I think it will be a great fit, less distraction and I can even play baseball at Metro. I told you that you knew what you needed to do and you needed to handle your business. You were so determined. I am so hurt that your life was cut short but I will always remember you and your smile and your determination. I hope you are at ease now and that you are protecting your loved ones the way you know how. I pray for you and your family. Rest In Peace. 

My condolences to your family alex, You are my older brother regardless if your here or not. You took care of my health my heart and my wellbeing. You always made sure I was okay throughout it all. I remember the night you came to my house after work and we just talked reassured me that everything would be okay. From the countless classes we had,we would always managed to talk laugh and goof off in any class. You had a perfect heart an amazing personality and a memorable laugh, I stay listening to our Snapchat voice clips wishing what had happened to you never happened. I miss and love you very much I’ll see you in heaven kiddo

My sincere condolences to Alexander's family. He was a student of mine in 5th grade. He came to me for Language Arts and Social Studies. He always had a nice smile. I remember him being really excited when we did the Living Wax Museum for our end of year project. He was a pleasant student, that always worked his hardest at whatever he did. He visited with me about a year ago at school and still had that calm nature and nice smile. He was a friend to all that came his way.

My deepest condolences on your loss.  Alex was one of my students when he attended V H Lassen.  He was such a nice young man- always smiling and very helpful.  He is remembered fondly.  
May your memories and the love of family and friends bring comfort and strength  during this difficult time.  
Respectfully and with caring thoughts,
Nancy Pina-Gray
