Alex joined the Navy in 1962, and was eventually stationed at Crane, Indiana at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division. In 1995, he retired from Crane. He was a member of the Gillen Post #33 American Legion, where he served on the honor guard. He was also a member of the Bedford Boat and Sportsmans' Club and an inactive member of the Owensburg Masonic Lodge. He was also an avid golfer.
I have so many good memories of my Uncle. My brother and I spent alomost every weekend at my Aunt and Uncle's. We'd stay the night, and have breakfast with them in the mornings. We'd also go golfing with them, even if we weren't that great.
One of my favorite memories happend when I was about 6 and my brother was about 3. We had spent the night with our Aunt and Uncle, and the next day, both my brother and Alex were tired, so they took a nap. My brother wet the bed, but he, being the persuasive child he was, convinced Uncle A. that he(Alex) was the one who did it.
He will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him.
