I'm sure if we think back we can find that one person that was a friend that we never forgot, for me it's someone I met in Headstart, by the time we were in first grade we where pretty much the odd couple ... neither of really fit in. He was my best frend back than, and once we got into 8th, some things in his life changed him he left school and I never heard from him again.
I never stopped thinking of him or wondering what happened to him and what became of his life, this moring I was just sitting here and I though of him and did a google search for him what I found broke my heart. It was a Obituary for Alexander Pearson, A.K.A. Alex Pearson. I have so many found memories of him and my heart breaks to know that he passed away.

We were so saddened to learn of Alex's passing today. Our children attend Jefferson Elementary School, and I taught Ky swimming lessons at the Y this summer. Alex was always such a joyful man every time we saw him, and you could just tell what a loving father he was. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time.
