About Alex Cotton Memorial Fund Inc

Alexander J Cotton, 53 of Wilbraham, MA was called home to rest after a short but arduous battle with pancreatic cancer on July 11th, 2020. Alex was a loving husband, caring father, and a doting grandfather. He had an infectious smile, an awesome sense of humor, and the gift of gab. He was a hard worker, which was reflected in over 35 years as an Air Force service member and as a devout Mason for 27 years. 

Alex was a devoted family man who loved spending time with his wife, children, and granddaughter. He especially enjoyed friday night movie nights where he loved indulging in science fiction movies. He looked forward to the annual Cotton cookout where many family, friends, and colleagues would attend. Although travel was apart of his military life it did not dampen his love of travel. Throughout the years he and his wife, and at a time, his entire family has traveled extensively seeing many foreign lands and places. His adventurous side included becoming a certified scuba diver in 2000 and being a weekend warrior rider on his motorcycle may it be alone or on group rides. As a child Alex was known to take things apart and put them back together which he carried through to his adulthood, so much so his wife created the motto if "Alex cant fix it, it cant be fixed".
