    I will always remember you for the good times we shared on and off the rink. We played a game together as friends, but over the years those bonds became more and more like those of family. I know that I speak for everyone who laced up skates with you, brother…you will always be missed, and never be forgotten. Rest in peace, Alex.

    Katya, my sincere prayers go out to you and your respective families. When we were forming the first SD hockey team and we heard a Russian was joining, I wondered if there would be a communication problem. There was. But I was the problem. Alex & Sergey had to deal with me constantly asking “how do you say ‘this or that’ in Russian?” It was their penance for being on the team with me. My great joy during these years is remembering choice phrases which are best left for another time. I loved Alex, who didn’t.

    Alex – I still remember your story about how Inet chauffeured you in a limo from airport for your interviews as a new grad, conveniently left the curtain closed, saving you for the best impression of Dallas. They were certainly smart and got their money worth for that ride. au revoir and see you on the side.

    I am still at a loss of words. There isn’t anything that I can say that would adequately explain how much Alex meant to me. He was one of the first friends I made when I moved to Dallas and I will miss him so much. I rarely laughed as much as I did in his presence and I will forever remember him and the impact he has had on my life. I miss my hockey buddy. I loved him and love you still Katya. RIP#45

    Alex, we can never replace your intelligence, your drive for success- and on a personal level, your wit, the way you could make anyone laugh and feel comfortable. Instead of “good morning”, I’ll miss your friendly greeting of “hey, troublemaker!” You will be missed by all. See you on the other side, friend.

    Katya, my heart and prayers are with you. I wish you peace and comfort.

    Alex,
    Little did I know when we met before the holidays that it would be our last on earth.
    Lest, I would have insisted that you deliver on my request that day. For all the 14 odd years I have known you, Alex, there was never a dull moment with you. You were as bright as you were personable, with an incredible ability to make people feel at ease. Your candle burned out so quickly, but yet it was brighter than the shining stars. I will greatly miss you Alex.
    To Katya and the family, may you be comforted by the memories you share, and knowing that Alex Ivershen while here on earth, used well all the talent God gave him.
    May the soul of Alex Ivershen, and that of all the faithfully departed rest with the Lord—Amen.
    Adieu! Adieu my brother.

    Alex was a wiseguy at work, the kind you look forward to seeing. Definitely among the brightest few of my work colleagues. His gregarious smile kept you on your toes, and his ability to spot the best solution was uncanny. He worked hard and played hard. It’s difficult to understand that we’ll be without him now.

    Thanks for sharing the hospitality of your home with me. It was a pleasure knowing you.

    Still remember at poker table, you showed me your hand, and told me why you fold a “A” and “7”. You predicted many people will play in this round and “A” is not good enough in that situation. I am still using this rule when I play now.

    Alex,
    You were so full of life and potential yet to be realized – it is difficult to find words. I knew there was something special about the young graduate I interviewed 13 years ago and you never once disappointed. It was an honor to call you friend, to work together, and to “engineer” together over these many years. Your speech the day I left Tektronix meant more to me than you knew – for that I can never repay.

    I pray that your soul is at peace and that Katya and your family can find resolution and comfort. I miss you Alex.

    We have known you for more than 13 years. You always were an example for others to follow. Whatever you did, you always went full strength and failure was never an option for you. You had a lot of qualities that people around you admired. You were very intelligent, smart, hospitable, and accommodating. We mourn the insurmountable loss that hit us so hard and sudden. We will always remember you, our dear friend.

    Hope you are at peace and go well. We will miss you.

    Lyolya, it is difficult to find the words to express my feelings. For those more than 15 years we knew each other we’ve been together through different situations from weddings to gardening, from traveling to the other side of the world to cozy evenings at home, from paying poker to painting the walls, etc. In every situation you were showing you passion, brilliant intelligence and your energy. You were more than the best friend; you were part of the family and you will be always in our hearts. You will be missed a lot.

    Katya, you know I’m always here for you, stay strong.

    Alex,
    You had a candid ability to explain the most complex topics, very intelligent, and yet so humble. We last spoke late November, you were so passionate about your work and the information you wanted to present and how you wanted it to look. Your enthusiam was infectious. You are dearly missed. Rest in Peace.

    Alex, I have been fortunate to be working with you for two years, but I just needed two minutes to realize how gifted you were. Then, I discovered the passionated, driven, witty person that I got to admire and respect. Wherever you are today, I’m sure you are hard at work making it a better place, but to use your favorite French line: P… de merde, tu vas nous manquer!

    I only now heard of Alex’s passing, having left the company some years ago. Alex was a mentor to me and one of the most brilliant engineers I have ever worked with. Condolences to all family and friends – Bob (the GeNet guy).

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
