When the programme had finished I was overwhelmed with a sense of an ‘aliveness’ for life that only Alex knew (in my experience) so there was no way I could contemplate that he was no longer smiling that beaming joyous gentle warm and loving smile. For those he touched whether in real life or through the programme, we are blessed. And GEZILLIG lives forever. I loved Ali’s matching tattoo. So so sweet. Thank you family and friends for your wonderful contributions, and yes Alex thank you….you shining star.

This site is dedicated to the memory of Alex Lewis.
Alex passed away on the 17th of February after a four year battle with osteosarcoma. We invite all of Alex's friends and family to share their memories of Alex with us all by posting photos, videos or written memories to this website, to help us all remember the times we had with Alex, and the joy that he brought to our lives.
We would all love to hear any special memories you have to go with photos, and we are currently trying to collect as much film footage of Alex as possible, so if you have any footage to post here it would be very much appreciated.
We will also be using this site to highlight the events and activities planned by so many of you in order to raise money for the Bone Cancer Research Trust in Alex's name.
I was deeply moved by how brave Alex was during his battle with his illness. A lovely lad who is now at peace. God bless.
