Burchelle Family, my condolences on the passing of Alexander, I remember going to his store on the corner of King street and Hinchey ave. when i was a kid. $1.00 spent at his store meant Alex would give you alot small bottle of pop, bag of chips a bar and for your .25 cents change he would give you a bag full of candy and he always had a smile on his face.
to this day , I'm 56 yrs of age and I remember to a tee his little Green store on the corner , and most important how nice of a man he was to all of the kids including myself in the area he was to us .
Thank you Alexander for the nice child hood memory's .
may you rest in peace.
