Wendell “Wink” Alexander, 69, of Double Springs, Alabama went to be with his Lord Monday, Sept. 7, 2020 at his residence surrounded by his loving wife and family.

Wink was born Aug. 1, 1951 in Birmingham, Alabama. 

He was a graduate of Winston County High School, the Class of 1969, in Double Springs, Alabama.  After high school, he began a lifelong career as a truck driver, but he has always been a cowboy at heart.  He had a love for horseback riding and motorcycle riding. He was a good friend to all who knew him and a loving husband and father. He was a member of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church #2 in Double Springs, Alabama. There was nothing he loved more than his family except for his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  His battle here is over but victory is won.

The family will receive friends Thursday, Sept. 10, 2020 from 6-9 p.m. and Friday, Sept. 11 from 1-2 p.m. at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church #2 in Double Springs.  The funeral service will be Friday, Sept. 11, 2020 at 2 p.m. at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church #2.  Brother Jeffrey Wiggins and Brother Kirk Cagle will officiate.  Burial will follow in the adjoining cemetery.
