I will always be indebted to Alec "Mamo" for the influence and care she bestowed to my children her first grandchildren Chris & Dennis during their childhood. Her influence and guidance have had a great impact on who they are today. Thank you Alec for the true affection, and care you gave my children through their adversity in life. May God honor and bless you in Heaven.
To the entire family my sincere and deepest condolences.
