Alexander H. Nguyễn , 13, of Weston, Massachusetts, passed away on January 21, 2026.

Alexander was a kind and happy soul who found joy in the simplest things in life. He had a gentle presence and was deeply thoughtful of those around him. Guided by an innate sense of duty, integrity, and goodness, he was always ready to offer care and service to others.

He engaged with the world through a wide range of interests. Alexander loved traveling, skiing, swimming, camping, and gardening. He enjoyed helping his grandparents, discovering new foods as a young foodie, spending time with friends and cousins both online and offline, playing music, and creating content on YouTube. He shared an especially close bond with his siblings, with whom he traded secrets and laughter. He played the tuba and the guitar, and proudly spoke of his hope to one day become a pilot and a professional tuba player. Above all, Alexander appreciated and enjoyed life.

He is survived by his parents, his older sister, and his younger brother, all of whom were deeply loved by him and will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

Alexander's kindness, thoughtfulness, humor, and joy for life will be remembered by all who knew him.
