FEBRUARY 9, 1929 – JUNE 16, 2023

With heavy hearts and profound sadness, we announce the passing of Alex Dobos, a man whose life was a beautiful symphony of faith, love, and music.

He departed this world on June 16, 2023, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever resonate in our hearts.

Born on February 9, 1929, Alex was a man of unwavering faith, embodying the spirit of devotion and reverence. His unshakable belief in God was a guiding light throughout his. Whether found within the walls of his home, at his place of worship (St. Gregory’s, St. Mary’s & St. Gertrude’s), or in his interactions with others, his profound devotion to God was an ever-present inspiration.

His family was the cornerstone of Alex's life. As a loving husband to Julie (2008), father to Suzanne Neal (John), Alex Dobos (Mary) and Michael Dobos (Anne), grandfather to Jeff (Maroua), Sarah (Steve), James, Jordan (Brooke), Alexander (Sarah), Emily (Ryan), Jonathan, Laura (Lucas) and Isaac (Sophia) and great-grandfather to Bentley, Sawyer, Gordon and another lil one on the horizon, he enveloped his loved ones with a truly extraordinary warmth. His family was a source of immeasurable pride and joy for him.

He is predeceased by his loving sisters Joan (Mark) and Katherine and leaves behind his brother Les (Angela) Dobos, brother-in-law John Planeta and many nieces and nephews.

Music was the language through which Alex expressed his soul and touched the lives of all who listened. With his trusty violin in hand, his fingertips danced across the strings, effortlessly transforming melodies into a vibrant tapestry of emotions.

Alex gifted us with a symphony of joy through his instrument, evoking laughter, tears, and an overwhelming sense of awe.

Alex's legacy as a musician will forever echo through the halls of our memories. He taught us that music has the ability to heal, uplift and transcend the boundaries of language. While we mourn the loss of a remarkable man, we find solace in the indelible memories he left behind.

Alex's legacy will live on in the hearts and minds of those whose lives he touched, forever inspiring us to embrace faith, cherish our loved ones, and find solace and joy in the universal language of music.
