About Alexander

Our beautiful little boy, Alexander Michael Dodson, was born May 3, 2007. He was our first born and only child at the time.

From the day he was born, we were absolutely in love with Alexander and felt so lucky to have him in our lives.  He was always smiling and happy.  He loved to make others happy as well and could always be counted on for a kiss or a hug.  He loved to dance, eat waffles, read books, play with his friends, and watch Wow Wow Wubbzy.

On December 19, 2008, we put Alexander to bed and he never woke again.  December 20, 2008, was and continues to be the worst day of our lives.  Our sweet little Alexander didn't suffer.  He never called to us.  He just never woke up again.

We hope our efforts through Alexander's Legacy of Hope will help raise awareness and help put a stop to Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC). Our time with Alexander was much too short but we’ll know he’ll always be with us. Money raised through Alexander’s Legacy of Hope will be used to support the Alexander Michael Dodson Fund.  Held at the Princeton Area Community Foundation, the fund supports the Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC) Foundation and local nonprofits.

We greatly appreciate your support and participation.
