Alex was always a special person to me from the time I met him during his interview for an AOV special assistant position. He has always been poised, peaceful and the one to find middle ground in tough and crucial conversations. He was instrumental in my success and becoming an executive and I will always be grateful to him for that. May he rest in heavenly peace forever.

My first encounter with Alex was almost a decade ago at an Aviation Safety Leadership Dashboard meeting when he shared his infamous fireball candy. Although I did not work for him back then, I sought to sit next to him in future meetings. His warm smile, humility, and kindness had a way of making me (and many others) feel welcome and appreciated. Over the last two years, I had the honor of working for Alex in AOV. What an exceptional leader and person--he impacted many. This world and our airspace system are better because of him. I'm praying for peace, faith, hope, and love for the family. May God grant you unshakeable peace and solace. --Cherise Ojo, FAA/AOV
