Over a decade ago, one of my CAG's Merlin and I traveled to Tucson to see Irene and meet Alex. Alex took a special "liking" to me, which was an honor since he usually preferred to court men. My Merle was horrified and put a stop to that... "That's MY human!" But ever since that first meeting, Mr. Alex has always had a special place in my heart.

God bless this little bird-man with an attitude that turned the science community upside down. To science, he will always be remembered as "that damn bird" because he always proved them wrong. To the rest of the world, he will be remembered as the Prince of Hearts, who showed us that animals are smart and they have feelings.

Looking at his life from a higher perspective, Alex dedicated his life to scientific work to help Irene prove over and over again the intelligence of the African Grey parrot. He was her professional colleague. He slugged it out for 30 years, right beside Irene, to repeat the same experiments that left no doubt that he truly understood what he was doing. It took a special soul to come into our existence to pull this off.

The world is now better off because of a BIRD: Our Alex, Our Prince of Hearts.

Thank you dear Alex, Prince of our Hearts,
for your magnificent service here,
  and for the love, joy, wisdom, and understanding you brought to us all.
You are a most precious, intelligent African Grey, and a very special soul.
  We miss you and we love you,
but I guess that your mission here on Earth was done,
and perhaps it will continue in Heaven.  
  Now may our Beloved Father-Mother God and Beloved Saint Francis
  take care of you and bring you comfort,
until you may return to Earth again, perhaps as a bird or perhaps in another form.
God bless you Alex, dear Little One
and God Bless all our precious feathered friends.
