I will always remember our friendship and the good times we had both personally and professionally.

Just found out the painful news of Alex‘s passing today. We would keep in touch and call each other intermittently to catch up. Today was my turn to call him.  Our last conversation was in late 2022 and Alex was very excited to share with me that he had gotten married. Hearing the excitement in his voice brought me joy knowing he was very happy in his life. We had a friendship for 10 years which impacted my life as he was a great inspiration. What a great man full of integrity, he will be missed…Rest well my friend.

I sat down this morning to do a computer search on Alex not expecting to see his obituary.  I knew Alex and was friends with him at Collis P Huntington 4th - 6th grades and 7th grade.  We lost track after I moved to Seattle in 1977.  I'm deeply saddened to see this and reflect on the wonderful person I saw even as a childhood friend.  Much love to his family and friends.

Alex Fong was a friend and colleague for 18 plus years. I first met him in 2003 when I started at Teva Neuroscience and he was my group mentor in initial training. We kept in touch after that and he was always willing to chat, offer opinions, advice and support. Alex was kind, upbeat, funny and most of all caring. He didn’t just care about how things were at work, he cared about people, their life, and their family. A few years later I had the honor of becoming Alex’s manager in the Pacific Mountain region and we worked closely together for ten years. Alex had an impact on our team and on me as a leader. He wanted everyone around him to be successful and happy, and he did so much to lift up others both on our team and across the company.  He was powerful in his humble dedication to serving others and that’s what I cherish the most about him. He was a friend and colleague for many years, but mostly a friend.  I will miss him.

Alex,
You're always in our hearts.

My relationship with Alex spanned over 20 years. It was through his step-mom Irene that we connected.  He fortunately became a part of the team in the West.  I was happy to work with him, and he certainly was a delight to be with.  On one work-with in the field, he made a suggestion that contributed to our team being the best in the nation that year.  Alex was curious and expressive and truly a pleasure to be with.  He took great joy in participating in the work philosophy that our company had embraced, and he was quick to share with others.   He had a big commitment to make a difference and contribute to others.  It was a big part of who he was and his self-expression.  Alex was an expressive individual who truly loved being with others and sharing.  He will be missed by many, and I am only one of them.

My heartfelt condolences to Alex’s family. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing. I had the privilege of working with Alex at Teva where we attended many committee meetings together over 10 years. He made everyone feel special, his smile and interest genuine. May his memory always be a blessing.

I am very sorry to hear the passing of Alex. Alex was a colleague and an incredible professional sales representative with Teva Pharmaceuticals. We had many good times together and shared a Presidents Club win in 2016. I am Blessed to have had the opportunity to have Alex in my life and he will be remembered. My deepest condolences to his family.

Family, my heart is hurting and aching with you. Shared 18 years at Teva with Alex.  This won’t scratch the surface but I want to try and share with you in words what a light to this world Alex was. Everyday the same consistent welcoming, smiling, friendly countenance. Friend, brother, mentor. A son, who honored his mother and father. Loving husband. Selfless, generous, sharing, caring, intentional, compassionate shining light. One of the greatest examples of what it looks like to treat others the way you would want to be treated yourself.  I know there are countless others, anyone fortunate to know him, who are aching and reflecting the same way. Prayers over family and friends.

We remember Alex for his kindness, positivity and leadership.  It was always a pleasure to see Alex's smiling face at meetings.  The world has lost a wonderful human and we wish family and friends strength during this time of sadness.

I am so very heart broken to hear the news of Alex's passing. He was one of the absolute best, and the most sincere person I have ever known. He was a true leader at Teva, and I always look forward to visiting him at our meetings. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. God Bless you all.

Alex made me smile every time a saw or spoke with him. He would lift you up with a smile, kind words and sincere interest in you, A wonderful man. My sincerest thoughts and prayers for family and friends.

Family, my heart is hurting and aching with you. Alex has and, through his influence on me and everyone gifted to know him, always will be a light to this world.  Everyday the same consistent welcoming, smiling, friendly countenance. Friend, brother, mentor. A son who honored his mother and father. Loving husband. Selfless, generous, sharing, caring, intentional, compassionate shining light. One of the greatest examples I know of what it looks like to treat others the way you would want to be treated yourself.  I know there are countless others, anyone fortunate to know him, who are aching and reflecting the same way. Prayers over family and friends.

My heart is heavy after hearing about Alex. I’ve known Alex a long time and I have the upmost respect for him. We shared time together as Senior Executive Sales Specialists at Teva. He was always so smart and kind. He was a true leader and he will be truly missed.

My deepest condolences for your loss.  I didn’t know Alex well or long, but at a meeting earlier this year I was able to interact with him and brainstorm some ideas.  He was warm, funny and very eager to help a new trainer like myself.  Thank you again for the help Alex.
