Alex was my best friend, and her loss has left a deep void in the lives of everyone who knew her. After a courageous five-year battle with ocular melanoma, a rare and aggressive cancer, Alex passed away with dignity, surrounded by love and comfort. She is survived by her devoted husband, Anthony, and their bright 7-year-old son, Hudson. The family is now facing the heavy burden of medical bills and the challenge of moving forward without her. Alex was a special education teacher who dedicated her life to reaching and inspiring young minds. She had a gift for connecting with children and making each one feel seen and valued. And most of all, she was an incredible mom—her love for Hudson was boundless, and she poured her heart into every moment with him. Whether it was helping with schoolwork, cheering him on at activities, or simply sharing quiet moments together, Alex’s devotion to her son was at the center of her world. She balanced her career and motherhood with grace, always putting her family first. Outside the classroom, Alex lived life to the fullest—traveling, cherishing every moment with her family and friends, and spreading joy wherever she went. Her kindness, strength, and passion touched everyone she met, and her absence is felt deeply by all who loved her. We are raising funds to help Anthony and Hudson through this incredibly difficult time. Your support will help cover immediate expenses, provide stability for their future, and honor Alex’s legacy of love and generosity. If you are able, please consider contributing or sharing this fundraiser. Every gesture of support means the world to us as we remember Alex and help her family find hope in the days ahead.
